FAILURE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE ROLL
TUBE, FABRIC AND SUPPORT ARM ASSEMBLIES
MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
USE CARE WHEN REMOVING THE COTTER PINS.
THE COTTER PINS ARE HOLDING THE PRE-WOUND
TENSION OF THE SPRING. FAILURE TO SECURELY
HOLD THE ROLL TUBE MAY ALLOW THE ROLL
TUBE TO RAPIDLY ROLL UP AND CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY OR DAMAGE.
Securing the Fabric
1. Roll the awning in and out several times to ensure that
the fabric is square on the roll tube.
2. Secure the fabric in the awning rail no more than 1”
inside the edge of the fabric on both ends using a #6 x
½” hex. head screw. Install the screw down through the
awning rail into the fabric and the polycord (Fig.10).
