4-6.4.15 Pivotal Adjustment of Lead Rail
Tools Required:
5mm (3/16”) Allen Wrench
17mm (11/16) Open End Wrench
This adjustment, not being available on earlier models, affects the pivotal angle of the Lead Rail and is seldom required, as,
this angle is factory preset. However, if adjustments are required, the procedures are:
Open the awning about 16 inches.
Locate the connection bracket at the forward most portion of the left/rear arm, i.e., the arm furthest from the motor.

).
The “pivoting” style connection bracket can be identifi ed by having one set screw in the center of the bracket, in addition
to a second set screw at the upper portion of the pivoting section of the bracket assembly. The non-pivoting style bracket
has two set screws, in-line, in the center of the bracket.
If the pivoting style bracket is present, grasp the Lead Rail with one hand and manually pivot, up and down, the Lead
Rail on this bracket. It should pivot freely. If it does not pivot freely, loosen slightly, the large lock nut on the end of the
horizontal bolt that fastens these two pivoting brackets together. This should free the two brackets and allow a pivot
between them. Repeat for each arm, if necessary.
Using the awning switch and motor, close the awning to about 3”. Check the angle of the Lead Rail in relation to the
awning casing. The Lead Rail should approach the awning casing with the TOP portion of the Lead Rail striking the
casing FIRST. From the TOP of the Lead Rail, a 10 degree angle should occur as it angles away from the awning casing. If
this angle is not present, again open the awning to about 18”. Locate the UPPER set screw in the pivoting portion of the
connection bracket. Using a 5mm (3/16”) Allen Wrench, turn this set screw (counterclockwise) to achieve the desired
10 degree angle. Repeat this procedure for each of the arm connections, assuring that the proper angle and “free pivot”
condition is maintained.

4-6.4.16 Height Adjustment of Arms
(
see Exploded View - Item No. 37
)
Tools Required:
19mm (3/4”) Open End Wrench
10mm (3/8”) Open End Wrench
This adjustment may be required if, as the awning Lead Rail closes into the awning casing, the “elbow” of one of the arms is
hanging downward, hitting the bottom of the casing. This adjustment is usually required after an Arm replacement.
Open the awning about 18 inches.
At the selected arm, loosen the (2) Locknuts located at the side of the upper arm connection using a 19mm (3/4”) Open
End Wrench.
See Exploded View Item #92
. Locate the smaller adjustment bolt located directly under the rear Locknut that was just
loosened. Place a 10mm (3/8”) Open End Wrench around this bolt head, and rotate the wrench in a TIGHTEN direction
to RAISE the arm. Slight rotation is all that is necessary. Likewise, LOOSENING the bolt will LOWER the arm. As this
adjustment is being performed, keep in mind that after re-tightening the Locknuts, the arm will raise slightly further.
Tighten the (2) locknuts located on the side of the arm connection.
Close the awning completely, and check for proper fi t.
