Page 8: Assembly Instructions
Assembly Instructions Step 1: Assemble the Fabric Roller Insert fabric roller connectors (A-A-1) into right and left fabric roller bars (A-1) and (A-2) and tap into place with a mallet. Use 4 (S) screws on each side and standard Phillips bit to secure in place. - Page 9 Insert fabric roller connectors (A-A-1) into middle fabric roller bar (A-3) and tap into place with a mallet. Use 4 (S) screws on each side and standard Phillips bit to secure into place. Step 2: Assemble the Torsion Bar WARNING! DO NOT REMOVE THE SAFETY SLEEVES THAT HOLD THE ARMS DOWN! Insert the torsion bar connectors (B-B-1) into the left and right torsion bars (B-1) and (B-2) and tap into place with a mallet.
- Page 10 Insert torsion bar connectors (B-B-1) into the middle torsion bar (B-3) and tap into place with a mallet. Use 2 (T) bolts and 10 mm socket wrench to secure in place.
- Page 11 Step 3: Assemble the Front Bar Insert the front bar connectors (C-C-1) into the left and right front bars (C-1) and (C-2) and tap into place with a mallet. Use 2 (S) screws on each side and standard Phillips bit to secure in place.
- Page 12 Insert arm-bar link (Q) and blocker (P) through the side slot of the middle bar and into position based on the diagrams below (the position depends based on which way the middle torsion bar (B- 3) was assembled).
- Page 13 Insert front bar connectors (C-C-1) into the middle front bar (C-3) and tap into place with a mallet. Use 2 (S) screws on each side and standard Phillips bit to secure in place.
- Page 14 Step 4: Assemble the Fabric Unfold fabric (M) and valance (O). Confirm both are facing right side up before beginning next steps. The fabric liner (N) comes with 3 cords: 2 thick cords and 1 thin cord. Thread the thin fabric liner (N) through the top side of the fabric (M) that will be nearest to the wall when awning is mounted.
- Page 15 Thread the top side of the fabric (M) and its liner through the slot in the assembled fabric roller (A). Then, thread the bottom side of the fabric (M) and the valance (O) into the front bar (C). Tip: These steps are easier to complete with two people. If the liners get caught where the fabric seams are located, wiggling the fabric helps!
- Page 16 Roll up the assembled fabric. Be sure to roll tightly so that the fabric is taught when retracted. Insert the fabric roller end cap (F-2) into the right side of the assembled fabric roller (A). Tip: Use the fabric’s left and right seams as a guide to ensure fabric is rolled up evenly.
- Page 17 Step 5: Assemble the Cassette Insert the assembled fabric roller into the right cassette (G-2). Then, connect the middle cassette (G-3) to the middle cassette (G-2) and use (G-G-1) bolts and T-30 bit to secure the cassettes together.
- Page 18 Connect left awning cassette (G-1) to middle cassette (G-2) and fasten with (G-G-1) bolts and T-30 bit.
- Page 19 Step 6: Assemble Motor Insert motor (F) into the left fabric roller (A). The power cord, hand crank, and limit switches should fit into the gap provided by the fabric roller. Insert motor (F) into the left fabric roller (A). The power cord, hand crank, and limit switches should fit into the gap provided by the fabric roller.
- Page 20 Step 7: Assemble the Roller Support Attach fabric roller support (D) and plastic brushing (E) to end cap (H-2) and secure with 2 (Y) bolts and a 10 mm socket wrench.
- Page 21 Step 8: Assemble LED Lights Stick adhesive LED tape (D-1) (D-2) to groove on the cassette. The D-1 LED tape should be installed on the left and middle cassettes, and the D-2 LED tape should be installed on the right cassette. Fix plastic cover (E-1) (E-2) (E-3) to LED groove on the cassette.
- Page 22 Connect motor (F) to LED tape (D-1). Then connect remaining LED tapes together.
- Page 24 Step 9: Connect the Assembled Cassette to the Assembled Torsion Bar Insert assembled torsion bar into the assembled cassette and roller bar. Make sure the ends of the assembled torsion bar are flush, then secure by tightening bolts with a 6 mm Allen wrench.
- Page 25 Step 10: Insert Remaining Blockers and Arm Bar Links Before assembling, inspect the wrapping on the arms to ensure the wrapping is still intact. Arm bars are spring-loaded and can cause serious damage or injury during assembly. Slide blockers (P) into the left and right-side grooves located on the assembled front bar (C).
- Page 26 Step 11: Attach Arm Bar Links to Awning Arms Line up arm bar links with top of each arm and tighten with a 6mm Allen wrench. Then, insert arm bar links into top of arm. Hand-tighten nuts to secure. Important: Do not over-tighten nuts! Over-tightening nuts will prevent awning rotation.
- Page 27 Step 12: Attach Cassette Support Attach cassette support (G-4) to torsion bar (B). Insert 2 nuts (G- G-3) into the back groove of the assembled cassette (G) and fasten with two bolts (G-G-2). Secure the bottom of the cassette support with 1 bolt (G-4).
- Page 28 Step 13: Insert Fabric Locks, Torsion Bar Cover, and Front Bar Cover Insert fabric locks (Z) into both ends of the assembled front bar (C), and tighten with a Phillips screwdriver.

Page 29: Wall Mounting Instructions
Wall Mounting Instructions Safety Instructions Never attempt to secure the wall brackets to loose wall stones or any surfaces that are not absolutely firm. WARNING! It is critical that you fasten all mounting brackets to studs, joists, headers, or other major structural components. Failure to securely fasten all the brackets to the wall could result in the collapse of the awning and cause personal injury or death. - Page 30 Recommended Installation Height: 8-12 feet; the distance between the roof and the bottom bracket hole should be at least 8 inches. The awning has a drop of 24 inches when at a slope or 15 degrees. Calculating Awning Slope You can use the following formula to calculate the appropriate awning angle: C = A + 0.17 x L A = The desired height of the arm bar...
- Page 31 Drill the Bolt Holes If you are mounting your awning to brick or concrete: Using a 16mm masonry drill bit, drill bolt holes approximately 4 inches deep. If you are mounting your awning to wood: Drill holes with 7 mm bit to fit mounting screws. IMPORTANT! All bolt/screw holes must be aligned vertically and horizontally to ensure that the awning hangs straight.
- Page 32 Mounting the Wall Brackets If you are mounting your awning to brick or concrete: Insert expansion bolts. It may be necessary to drive the bolts in with a wooden mallet. (If a mallet is necessary, we recommend placing the nut on the screw loosely before hammering to avoid damaging the bolt threads).
- Page 33 If you are mounting your awning to wood: Place the wall brackets over the holes you just drilled and secure with screws using a 7 mm bit. Mounting the Awning Once the wall brackets are secure, place the awning (with two people!) on to the brackets and secure with (J-1) bolts and 10 mm socket wrench.
- Page 34 Adjusting Awning Pitch Each awning comes with a pre-set pitch (angle) that is considered ideal. However, you may need to adjust the pitch slightly to ensure the awning is completely even when retracted. To adjust your awning pitch, have someone help hold the front bar while you adjust the bolts on the torsion bar as shown in the diagrams below.
