7. For extended stays and where ground and weather
conditions permit, the patio position allows easier ac-
cess and more usable space (FIG. 7B):
Lower the awning (reverse Steps in Sec. 6)
Grasp the arm and support the awning weight. Push on
the thumb latch and allow the foot to lower, rotating out
from under the latch. (FIG. 7A)
Place the support arm down vertically on the ground
and adjust the support arm height. (FIG. 7B)
Accessory hold-down stakes should be installed through
the holes on the awning foot to secure the awning in
case of wind. (FIG. 7C)
CAUTION: DO NOT DRIVE THE STAKES "HOME" AS IT
WILL BE DIFFICULT TO PULL THEM OUT AND MAY
DAMAGE THE AWNING FOOT.
Repeat this step on the other side to complete the patio
position setup.
FIG. 8
8. CAUTION: Whenever heavy or prolonged rain or
wind is anticipated, or you will leave the awning
unattended, it is best to close the awning. Damage as
a result of weather is not covered by warranty.
TO CLOSE
1. FROM PATIO POSITION
Remove the stakes from the awning foot and swing the
support arm up to the bottom mounting bracket. Rotate
the foot and insert into the bracket. Repeat on other side.
(FIG. 1)
2. FROM VEHICLE MOUNTING POSITION: Grasp the
main arm, loosen the arm knob and lower main support
arm down to the stop plug. (FIG. 2)
