Hanging the Window Awning

DO NOT REMOVE THE COTTER PINS AT THIS TIME.

and secure together with one #10 - 12 x 1" fastener (Fig.3).
Both arms are identical and can be used interchangeably.
Repeat for the other end.

2. Unroll one full roll of the fabric to slide the polycord
into the awning rail. If too much fabric is unrolled before
releasing the tension, there will not be enough tension to
sufficiently retract the awning after use.
3. Insert the polycord into the channel in the awning rail
(Fig.4) and center the fabric with the awning rail.
