C. Readjust Lateral Arm Assemblies (If
Required)
Do not allow lateral arm assemblies to rub
against lower lip of back rail when closing,
or against awning fabric when fully opened.
Failure to obey this notice could result in
property damage.
After fabric slope adjustment, verify that cassette awning
will close without interference. If awning will not close
properly, or if lateral arm assembly's elbow will not clear
back rail, it will need readjustment. See FIG. 15.
Note: The lateral arm assembly's elbow should just clear
(slightly above) lower lip of back rail without rubbing. Adjust-
ing too high may interfere with top (awning case), or may
cause shoulder base to contact awning fabric.
