5 .3 Determining the Awning
Location

WARNING: IMPACT OR CRUSH HAZARD .
Make sure the mounting surface on the RV is flat,
has a solid structural backing where fasteners
penetrate the surface, and will safely and securely
support the awning. Otherwise, the awning may
become unstable and could detach. Failure to obey
this warning could result in death or serious injury.
I Allow for sufficient clearance between the awning
fabric and the entry door, or slideout room, to
accommodate the awning's pitch (slope). Avoid
locations that interfere with entry door swing when
the awning is completely extended. See sections
"5.3.1 Door Clearance" on page 7 and "5.3.2
Installing an Optional Roller and Edge Guard" on
page 7 for more detail.
5 Awning Location
Complete the following steps to determine the awning
location.
1. Find a solid structure in the RV wall to support the top
mounting brackets and back channels (all mounting
points).
2. To install the awning components over
windows, order the back channel spacer kit P/N
3312853.025(#).
I Make sure the arm assemblies do not restrict the
use of doors, windows, and similar RV components.
