Manual Awning to
Solera 18V Power Awning
(For Aftermarket Applications)
CCD-0001267
Adjusting the Pitch
NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of
excess water and may dump a signicant amount of water
without notice.
1. Extend the awning to the fully open position.
2. Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or
convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the joint of the
pitch arm until desired pitch is set to allow for water runoff.
NOTE: Do not push the joint of the pitch arm (Fig.34A) up
past the point where the two sections are in a straight line.
This will put tension on the gas strut, which can cause the
strut to break.
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting
the pitch.
NOTE: Belleville washers and a bolt (Fig.34B) allow the
joint to remain in the position set by the operator. If the
pitch arm does not hold position, it can be tightened by
adjusting the bolt in the center of the pitch arm.

Troubleshooting

NOTE: This procedure may also be performed to extend
or retract the awning in the event of dry camping or
camping without a battery.
1. Remove the rubber grommet (Fig.35A) from the drive
head assembly, exposing the manual override nut on
the motor.
