“IN” Adjustment of Lead Rail
Tools Required
5mm (3/16”) Allen Wrench
Rubber Mallet
This adjustment may be required if the Lead Rail remains out from the awning casing at one end. The Limit Switches may
need to be adjusted. Please see that section entitled ADJUSTING MOTOR LIMIT SWITCHES. Otherwise, arms may need to be
adjusted as follows:
Open the awning about 16 inches.
At the selected arm, locate the connection bracket at the forward most portion of the arm at the Lead Rail (Item #43
of Exploded View). Using a 5mm (3/16) Allen Wrench, loosen the center set screw on this bracket, by ¾ turn, which
un-tightens this bracket from the Lead Rail. This bracket should now be free to slide. Do NOT loosen the offset leveling
screw found on the upper corner of this bracket assembly.
Close awning completely and the arms will relocate themselves to the proper location. Re-open the awning just far
enough to re-tighten the arm screws.
