Pre-Installation
1. Install TrailerTail
STEMCO recommends installing the TrailerTail prior to installing the AutoDeploy® system.
2. Latch Installation
Attach Electronic Latches
Insert (4x) Ornit rivets from the outside of the Lateral Panel.
Rivet the electronic latch to the inside of the Lateral Panel.

4. Panel & Trailer Preparation
®
Aero
™
Lateral Panel Grommet Cutout
Make a small 2" x 2" cutout where the latch cable will enter the trailer frame.
The cutout should be approximately 41" from the bottom of the TrailerTail.
The cutout may be moved up or down at most 6" to avoid a door hinge.
Drill a hole 4" horizontally from the grommet cutout with a 1/4" drill bit.
TrailerTails with custom cut lateral panels will have the grommet cutout and hole pre-drilled.
Drill Holes in Trailer Frame
Using a center punch, mark the trailer frame in the center of the 2" x 2" cutout and
centered horizontally on the frame. This mark will help keep the drill bit from wandering.
Drill a 5⁄8" hole in the frame. STEMCO recommends using a sheet metal hole saw.
Use a grommet bracket as a template to drill the rivet mounting hole for the bracket.
