Manual Gear Operation:

Once your awning is fully installed with all mounting hardware and installation bolts se-

cured, you may operate the unit. To extend the awning, place the hook end of your crank

handle into the gear loop located at the far end of the awning. Turn the hand crank in a cir-

cular motion until the awning is fully extended and the arms "lock" in place, then turn the

crank in the opposite direction to properly tension the awning. Please note that when the

awning is fully extended the arms will not be straight. DO NOT OVEREXTEND THE

AWNING.

If you continue to unwind fabric off the roller tube, the fabric will sag and eventually start to roll up from the under side of the

roller tube. This can cause the fabric to come out of alignment or damage the fabric. The fabric should always roll over the

top of the roller tube. To retract the awning, simply repeat the process, turning the hand crank in the opposite direction until

the awning is fully

CORRECT:

fabric rolling off the top

Protective Hood (optional)

Hood Assembly & Installation:

Lay the hood on its back with the tracks facing up. Choose a surface that will not damage the painted finish.

Slightly loosen the 13mm hex head bolts from the aluminum plate on the hood brackets pro-

vided. Slide the ¾" x 4" aluminum plate into the groove of the hood. There is the letter "F" on

this aluminum plate that should be facing the front (the curved side) of the hood – do not tighten

the bolts at this time. Next, remove the 5mm allen head bolt from each hood bracket.

The hood will be attached to the square torsion bar – the brackets slide directly down over this

bar. Check the torsion bar and make a note of the unusable mounting areas such as the end

brackets, arm shoulders, install brackets and any other obstruction that will interfere with the

hood brackets. These areas will not accept a hood bracket and are "dead mounting areas" and

should be noted as areas where brackets cannot go.

The first two brackets: A hood bracket should be placed no more than 2' 0" from either

end. The remaining brackets should be evenly spaced along the unit and should not

exceed a 5' 0" distance between any two brackets. Once the brackets are properly

spaced (keeping in mind the dead areas mentioned earlier), tighten the 13mm hex head

bolts.

Next, attach the hood end covers with the Phillips screws provided. Each end cover re-

quires 3 screws which install into screw guides in the hood. With a helper, walk up the

ladders and place the hood straight down onto the top of the square torsion bar. This

may be done before or after the awning is installed. The protective hood is 1" longer than the awning allowing for some side

to side adjustability.

With the hood in place, reinstall the 5mm allen bolts

into each hood bracket. Some hood brackets may be

behind the arm - if this is the case, extend the awning

to allow you access.

INCORRECT:

fabric rolling off the bottom

The arms will have a slight bent

When fully extended,

there should be a 1/4"

gap at the elbows

when fully extended!
