Important Note:
If using the optional wall spacers for the awning, follow the spacer supplement directions
for assembling and mounting the awning. After mounting the awning, go to page 7 "Direct Response

1.
Decide on the location of the switches and control box to determine the cable routing.
2.
If the motor cable is to be routed through the RV wall at the bottom of the arm, slip the cable through
the slot at the bottom of the track (refer to 7). Go to step 4.
3.
If the motor cable is to be routed through the RV wall at the top of the arm:
3.1 Remove the plastic wrap at the top of the motorized arm. Partially open the arm being careful to
not let the arm extend more than 6”.
CAUTION
The arm is under tension from the gas shock located in the arm.
When the wrap is removed, the arm will try to open completely. Firmly hold the arms
closed while removing the wrap.
3.2 Pull the motor cable from the back of channel and out the hole in the top of the channel.
3.3 Close the arm.
3.4 Secure the top of the arm in the closed position using a plastic wrap or equivalent.
4. 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 assembly, and then press the roller assembly fully
into the cap. The end cap must seat squarely over the end of the roller assembly when complete.
NOTE:
The roller assembly must be oriented with the fabric going over the roller toward the mounting
surface.
5. Secure the end cap to the roller assembly using two #10 square-drive screws.
6. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to attach the non-motorized arm assembly to the roller assembly.
NOTICE
During assembly and installation, The arm assemblies must remain perpendicular to
the roller assembly. Failure to handle the arm assemblies carefully can bend the drive shaft.
