ADJUSTING THE LEAD RAIL
The lead rail on your awning has been preset at +/- 3 degrees. This allows the lead rail
to rest firmly into the cassette and also creates a weather resistant seal for travel. To
increase or decrease the pitch angle insert a 4mm Allen wrench into the Pitch
adjustment screw, screw B (Figure 13). Turn clockwise to increase the pitch and turn
counterclockwise to decrease the pitch. Ensure that the pitch adjustment screw is set
evenly on all of the arms.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The lead rail is binding on the side of the awning casing; i.e. the rail is offset from
housing.
SOLUTION:
•
Open the awning about 3 feet.
•
Loosen the lead rail horizontal adjustment screws on all arms (Figure 14).
•
Locate and remove the two fabric set screws that are on each end of the lead
rail (Figure 14). The lead rail is now ready to be shifted.
•
Retract the awning until the lead rail is about 4 inches from the fully closed
position.
•
Using a rubber mallet, tap the end of the lead rail to move it into the correct
position.
•
When proper alignment has been achieved tighten the lead rail horizontal
adjustment screws (Figure 14), and then replace the fabric screws (Figure 15).
