REPLACING THE MOTOR (TUBULAR)
Refer to “Preliminary Steps” on page 10 before beginning this procedure.
1. Remove the motor end cap and set aside.
2. Disconnect the motor wires from the harness.
3. Remove the motor screws (x2) and the endplate screws (5) and set aside.
4. Pull the endplate away from the case.
5. Remove the fabric retaining screw from the motor bearing.
6. Pull the old motor out of the roller tube and set aside.
7. Place the one-way drive onto the new motor.
7.1. For RH motors the "B" points toward the motor.
7.2. For LH motors the "A" points toward the motor.
7.3. Secure with the new clip.
NOTICE If the drive is not oriented correctly, the awning will not operate and the arms will spring
out when released.
8. Align the one-way drive with the roller tube and start sliding the new motor into the roller tube.
9. Align the bearing on the motor and slide into the roller tube.
10. Attach the fabric retaining screw through the bearing and into the fabric slot. The screw must be
positioned to thread into the metal of the roller tube slot and the edge of the canopy polycord.
11. Insert the motor spacer into the endplate.
12. Attach the endplate to the motor with the motor screws removed previously. Ensure that the motor is oriented
with the limit switches pointed toward the access holes in the end plate.
13. Align the screw holes in the end plate and attach to the awning case.
14. Attach the motor 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.
15. While holding the lead rail, carefully remove any roller tube supports and arm ties. Allow the lead rail to extend
until the fabric is taut. If the lead rail continues to extend after the fabric is taut, the one way drive was installed
backwards. Retie the arms, remove the motor and orient the one way drive as shown.
16. To test:
16.1. Restore power.
16.2. Use the switch to extend and retract the awning.
17. After replacing the motor, it may be necessary to adjust the motor limit switches (page 2).
18. After testing and adjusting the motor limit switches, attach the end cap.
