Failure to support the roll tube, fabric and drive/idler head during installation
may result in serious injury or property damage.
Installation
1. Unroll the replacement fabric so that the cords are parallel with the roll tube.
2. On a clean, level surface free of any debris able to scratch or damage the roll tube, gently slide the roll tube
onto the two polycords of the fabric, making sure that the non-printed side is touching the roll tube (Fig. 9).
3. Center the fabric on the roll tube.
4. Install the screws that were holding the polycords in place on the roll tube. Install the screws between the edge
of the fabric and the stitching on the hem.
5. Roll the fabric onto the roll tube (Fig. 10). Make sure the fabric stays snug and flat to the roll tube with the
printed side facing away.
6. Reinstall the end cap previously removed.
7. Working together, install the roll tube and fabric on the awning rail and support arms, making sure the
awning will unroll with the printed side of the fabric up.
8. Working together, slide the shaft on the head assembly into the end cap. Install the wax screws at each end to
secure the roll tube end caps to the head assemblies.
NOTE: It is suggested to keep the head of the wax screw
⁄
" from fastened so as not to compromise the structural
integrity of the wax screw.
9. Extend and retract the awning several times to ensure that the fabric is square on the roll tube.
