12. Clean and deburr the roller tube slots and awning rail/Alumaguard/Uniguard as required. If not
previously done, spread open the awning rail track to facilitate inserting the new fabric.
Tip: Lightly spraying the slots with a dry silicone lubricant will help the fabric slide into the slot without
staining the material.
13. Unfold the replacement fabric
13.1. Slide the new fabric into the awning rail/Alumaguard/Uniguard.
13.1.1. For Alumaguard: Center the fabric, use a pair of side cutters or similar tool and crimp the
aluminum. Use care to not bend or distort the aluminum slats.
13.1.2. For Uniguard: Center the fabric and install the fabric retaining screws removed previously.
13.1.3. Allow the fabric to hang down the side of the coach.
13.2. For canopies with LEDs at the awning rail:
13.2.1. Carefully remove the staples from the rail adaptor and old canopy.
13.2.2. Slide the rail adaptor with LEDS onto the new fabric and secure with staples.
Ensure that the staples are flush on the top and bottom.
13.2.3. Slide the canopy and rail adaptor into the awning rail. Center the fabric and
install any fabric retaining screws removed previously
NOTE: While the awning fabric is fairly robust, care must be taken not to snag it on the awning rail.
14. If removed, install the upper mounting bracket.
15. Position the fabric feeders on the roller
tube. Be sure to use the same slots as the
old canopy.
16. Slide the roller tube on to the new fabric.
17. Remove the feeders.
18. Lift and align the roller assembly with the end cap on the motorized arm assembly. Rotate the end cap
until the slot in the cap aligns with the empty slot in the roller tube; press the roller assembly fully into
the cap. The end cap must seat squarely over the end of the roller tube.
NOTE: The roller assembly must be oriented with
the fabric going over the roller toward the vehicle
wall.

#10 square-drive screws.
20. Repeat to attach the idler arm assembly to the
