Unfurling the awning fabric more than one
revolution of fabric can cause issues with the awing
function.
9. With the slide-out room of the RV completely closed,
carefully lift the Slide Topper to the installed awning
rail end above the top of the slide-out.
10. While one person guides the awning fabric (or
awning roller cover, if applicable) into the awning rail,
carefully slide the Slide Topper until the fabric is in the
desired position.

A stepladder may be necessary to guide the fabric.
