11. Note the orientation of the old canopy then unwrap and remove from the roller tube.
12. Unfold the replacement fabric then slide the new fabric onto the roller tube until the fabric and roller
tube are centered.
NOTICE While the awning fabric is fairly robust, use care not to snag the new fabric while
sliding it into the roller tube and lead rail.
Tip: Lightly spraying the slots with a dry silicone lubricant will help the fabric slide into the slot without
staining the material.
13. Secure the fabric on the roller tube with a retaining screw through the motor bearing.
NOTE: The screw must be positioned to thread into the metal of the roller tube slot and the edge of the
canopy polycord.
14. On the idler side, pull the fabric smooth in the roller tube then secure with a retaining screw through the
end plug.
15. Roll the fabric onto the roller tube leaving enough material to reach between the case and the lead rail.
16. Slide the fabric into the lead rail and the roller tube into the case.
17. Seat the motor and motor spacer into the endplate. Ensure that the motor is oriented with the limit switches
pointed toward the access holes in the end plate.
18. On the idler side, position the roller tube end plug into the end plate and attach the end plate to the
case. It is not necessary to close the cover at this time.
19. On the motor side, secure the motor to the end plate with the motor screws removed previously.
20. Attach the motor and harness wires. Fold and tuck the wires and connectors to fit inside the end cap.
NOTICE Wire colors do not match between motor, limit switch and harness. Use the wiring
diagram on page 12 to ensure correct connections for the motor configuration.
21. Restore power to the awning.
22. Open and close the awning to confirm that the fabric rolls and unrolls squarely. Adjust the fabric
position in the lead rail as required.
23. Attach the RH lead rail end plate.
NOTE: The top screw of the lead rail end plates secures the fabric in the lead rail. The screw should
be positioned to thread into the metal of the lead rail and the edge of the polycord.
24. Attach the fabric retaining screw into the LH lead rail end plate.
25. Close and secure the cover. There are two screws on each end of the awning.
26. Attach the end caps.
