When service requires removing the Latitude roller tube it is important that the roller tube is correctly
attached when reinstalled.
For models made prior to date code 6293 (10-19-2016), the shaft of the roller tube end plug on the motor
side has two (2) grooves for attaching e-clips. The e-clips must be placed in the correct grooves for the
roller tube attachment.
NOTICE
Failure to properly attach the roller tube as shown below can cause unwanted
movement of the roller tube causing damage to the awning and making the awning not function
correctly.
On the idler side:
The e-clip
must be placed in the outer
groove of the end plug shaft.
On the motor side:
The e-clip
must be placed in the inner
groove of the end plug shaft.
NOTE:
On units made after the
date code, the shaft has only one
(1) groove for the e-clip.
A replacement roller tube attach
kit (R001848) is available to
replace lost or damaged
attachment hardware.
NOTE:
Early units used a round e-clip and washers on the idler side. The
e-clip with tab shown above replaces the washers and round e-clip. The
replacement roller tube attach kit includes the e-clip with tab.
