GENERAL INFORMATION
A. Application
The Horizon Case Awning is designed for use on
vehicles that cannot accept a full sized awning. It is
especially well suited for vehicles with an over cab
extension where there is not sufficient surface for a
bottom mounting bracket.
B. Position Of The Awning
1. Before beginning installation of the case, be sure
the door will open when the awning is completely
extended. Allow for at least a 15-degree pitch of
the fabric of the awning.
2. Check for a solid backing or under-structure
where screws and adapters are to be used. For
installations with mounting brackets, be sure that
all mounting brackets are secured in a very solid
manner.
3. Before drilling, be sure that there are no obstacles
inside the wall (cables, wires, gas pipes, etc.). Hav-
ing evaluated the construction of the vehicle, pick
the mounting style which best fits the application.
See Figures 3 & 4.
4. Minimum clearance from bottom of case to door
is 3.00 inches.
Important:
Read all of the following steps before
beginning installation.
Dometic Corporation reserves the right to modify ap-
pearances and specifications without notice.
