E. Unroll the awning completely
moving the support arms each
time when necessary.
F. To use the carport position, drive ground stakes through the holes in the carport
foot and into the ground for support. CAUTION. GROUND STAKES WILL NOT
PREVENT THE AWNING FROM MOVING IN THE WIND!
G. To use the bottom brackets, swing each arm toward the
vehicle, lift the bracket pin and position foot into bracket
and then release the pin.
H. Turn crank until awning is all of the way out. Turn the crank back a partial turn to
backwind the awning slightly. This tightens the fabric.
2. TO RETRACT AWNING:
A. Remove the support arms from the bottom
bracket, or remove the ground stake if in the
carport position.
B. Slide the support arms together and pivot them
into the lead-rail for storage by reversing Step 1C
on the previous page.
C. Hook the end of the crank handle into the
crank loop of the awning assembly. (Right) Roll
fabric up by turning the crank handle clockwise,
or opposite of what was done to extend the awning. Roll awning up until the lead
rail is completely retracted into the case. CAUTION: THE FABRIC MUST ROLL
UNDERNEATH THE ROLLER TUBE! ROLLING THE FABRIC OVER THE ROLLER
TUBE WILL BLOCK THE GEAR BOX FROM PROPERLY RETRACTING!
3. AWNING USE IN WIND AND RAIN.
To prevent water build up on the awning, position one upper arm substantially lower
than the other to create enough of a slope for adequate water run off.
NOTE: IF WIND OR EXTENDED PERIODS OF RAIN ARE EXPECTED, ROLL UP
THE AWNING AND SECURE FOR TRAVEL!
CAUTION: THE EFFECTS OF WIND AND RAIN ON ANY AWNING ARE
UNPREDICTABLE. SEVER
DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE
AND OR THE AWNING MAY
RESULT AND CANNOT BE
COVERED BY WARRANTY!
