NOTE: Use caution when retracting the awning manually.
The use of a step stool or ladder may be required to
completely retract the awning.
3. When the awning is completely retracted, replace the
rubber grommet in the drive head assembly (Fig.35A).
NOTE: The motor's internal drive system prevents the
awning from moving (extend or retract) on its own. If the
motor is damaged or disabled, be sure to secure the
awning in the retracted position with a strap around both
the outer arm and the mount arm (Fig.37A) before the
manual override nut is released.
DURING INCIDENTS OF HIGH WIND, HEAVY RAIN

Fabric Care

NOTE: If the awning is retracted while wet, extend the
awning and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before
retracting. This will help prevent the formation of mildew
and add greatly to the life of the awning. Mildew does not
form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt
and grime.
NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric
1/4
using a mixture of
warm water. Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the
fabric and retract the awning for 5 minutes. This will apply
the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Extend the
awning and hose off with fresh water. Repeat if necessary.
Allow to dry before retracting.
