Hastily, quickly, etc.
Explanation:
They hastily/quickly put (hastily/quickly is describing how they put the tarp) a tarp over their truck because they were worried that the incoming sandstorm could damage the truck's new paint.
I would use hastily/quickly because they don't want the sandstorm to damage their truck, so they would have to put the tarp on as soon as possible to prevent damage.

In your sentence I would add a
