Power Awning Arm Replacement
1. Run awning out to almost full extension in order to allow access to the fasteners that secure the
awning arms to the wall of the unit.
2. Remove the bottom 2 and middle 2 fasteners from the mount arm (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).
3. Disconnect the wires in the awning arm from the wires on the unit.
4. If the unit is equipped with an awning light that is mounted to the wall of the unit, make sure to take
the wire out of the arm from the top side.
5. Use the cordless battery from the screw gun to run the arm IN within 18" of being closed:
A. Take the red and white wires from the motor and connect them to the positive and negative posts
on the cordless screw gun battery.
B. If the awning does not run in the correct direction, reverse the wires.
6. Secure the outer arm to the mount arm by taking a zip tie and running it around the pin on the top of
the mount arm, where the mount arm and inner arm connect (Fig. 3)
NOTE: If replacing the drive side, secure the idler side with a zip tie to stop the awning from unrolling.
