What is the adjustment procedure for getting the top to "fully" retract, and what is "fully" retracted?
I don't believe mine is doing so, and I struggle to get the boot on.

Make sure you have the locking handles back into the locked position and then tuck in the cover corners if they pointing out over the rear deck. Start with securing the boot into the rail over the back seat and then go to the outer corners and then massage it into place. You want it to be tight and not catching air and they were designed 50 yrs ago so they shouldn't be as smooth as a babies butt to me!
