Replacing a folding arm with integrated LED
lighting
Exchange procedure
1. Removing the defective arm and installing the new one:
- Extend the awning for approx. 500 mm
- Secure the folding arms so that they can not fold out on their own because of their
internal spring mechanism.
Attention: There is danger to life!
- Disconnect the awning from the mains. For this purpose, switch dead the power supply
for the whole house.
- Pull the 24 V power supply line (placed between folding arm and arm bearing) out of the
awning cassette until the two-cord line connector is within reach.
- Cut the line directly before and after the two-cord line connector.
- Remove the folding arm from the front rail.
- Drive out the joint bolt in the bearing from the bottom up. Slightly support the folding arm
when doing so.
- Now mount the new folding arm.

Replacing a folding arm with integrated LED
lighting
Exchange procedure
2. Provide the electrical connection (24 V) between folding arm and LED control unit again.
After the installation of the new folding arm, the previously disconnected 24 V power supply
line between the folding arm and the LED control unit must be reconnected watertightly by
means of a two-cord line connector (art. no. 05510012).
For this purpose push both wires in one side of the two-cord line connector and connect
the connector with the help of water pump pliers on one side. Stripping of the wires is not
required.
Connecting the wires in the two-cord line connector:
-
Red
on
Brown (positive terminal)
-
Black
on
Blue (negative terminal)
Afterwards repeat this procedure for the 2nd side of the two-cord line connector.
Note:
Make sure, that both wires are shortened equally and flushly, are
placed correctly in the terminal and apply electrical contact.

connection point does not get bent when retracting or extending the awning and does not
move.
