Introduction
The rugged spring-loaded Solera
®
Classic extends and retracts
in just a few easy steps. Simply release the travel locks on each
arm, loosen the rafter knobs, use the pull cane to unlock the
roller, then hook the pull strap and walk it out to unroll the awning.
Once extended, set the tension, tighten rafter knobs and raise
the awning arms to whatever pitch you want for shade and water
runoff. You can also detach the arms from the bottom bracket and
rotate them to a vertical “carport” position. This carport position
makes it easy to attach Solera accessories like the Screen Room
and Solera Family Room
™
Quick Facts
• Standard 8’ projection
• Classic brackets align perfectly with bracket holes of most
brands of manual awnings
• Arms detach from bottom bracket and easily swing to “carport”
position
