Motorized Operation:
Motorized operation is simple. The motor (110 Volt AC) is housed in the
roller tube where it is protected from view and elements. Push the button once,
momentarily, to extend the awning all the way. The awning will extend until it
reaches the full extend position. Press the button to retract the awning. The
awning can be stopped in either direction, at any point, pressing the
momentary button once.
CAUTION: The motor is not designed for continuous use. In the
event that the motor is used to excess, it will automatically shut off
and be inoperative until the internal breaker cools down and resets.
The run time is four to five minutes per hour. Reset time will be 30
minutes to one hour depending on the outside temperature.
The awning will then extend to its full projection. To retract the awning,
press the momentary button once. There is no need to hold the switch once it
has been activated. To stop the awning at any point in its projection or
retraction, momentarily press the button once. The motor used in the Girard
uses 300 watts and draws approximately 3 Amps of power.
Manual Operation:
To manually operate the awning, use the telescoping crank handle supplied
and follow the instructions in the manufacturer's manual.
Wind Sensor:
To prevent damage, the awning uses a wind sensor that will retract the
awning in case of high wind. The wind sensor must have unrestricted access to
wind and 110 Volt AC availability. The wind sensor will override any push
button command in case of excess wind. As the sensor rotates, information in
the awning's control box interprets wind speed. If wind speed is excessive, the
awing retracts. Inside the control box is a potentiometer. The potentiometer can
vary the wind speed necessary to retract the awning.
Wind speed sensing is adjustable between 18 and 22 mph. The control box
is located in the forward cabinet of the curbside living room overhead. The
access panel must be removed to adjust the wind speed sensor.

To Adjust the Sensor:
• Unscrew the cover plate screws
• Adjust the potentiometer clockwise to increase the
amount of wind speed needed to retract the awning.
• Adjust the potentiometer counterclockwise to
decrease the amount of wind speed needed to
retract the awning.
