3.3. SETTING ThE pITch INcLINATION Of ThE AWNING:

• Half extend the awning.

• Remove the screws from the underside of side covers (1) and remove 

the covers.

• Slightly loosen hex-head screws (2) with ring spanner or ratchet with 

SW17 socket (do not remove fully!).

• For  fine  adjustment,  slightly  lift  to  relieve  the  weight  and  turn 

threaded pin (4) as appropriate.

If the adjustment of the threaded pin as such is not sufficient, 
the cylinder pin can be inserted in a different bore (12° offset 
per bore).

• To insert the cylinder pin in another bore, also relieve weight on the arm, then insert cylinder pin in the 

correct bore and perform fine adjustment.

• In the event of a significant change of the inclination setting (more than 12°), the arms must be adjusted 

alternately.

• After the arm adjustment, firmly tighten screws (2).

• Put on covers and secure with screws (1)

3.4. cOMpLETING ThE INSTALLATION / TRANSfER TO ThE cLIENT:

• Clear site. Remove packaging materials from site and dispose according to local regulations.

• The  installation  engineer  is  requested  to  enter  the  JAMES  ROBERTSHAW  order  /  reference  number 

and the product names in the ‘Product Identification’ item of the supplied User Manual so that future 
questions can be answered more efficiently.

• Hand over to the client all instructions concerning the installation and operation of the awning as well 

as the instructions for the electrical connections of control units and switches.

give client comprehensive instructions about the operation of the awning. Failure to observe the 
instructions and incorrect operation can result in damages to the awning and accidents.

notify client of the wind resistance class of the awning.

4. DISmOuNTINg ThE awNINg:

ensure that the area around the awning is free of unauthorised personnel. De-energise awnings 
with driving gear and secure against accidental switch-on.

• Dismount the awning exclusively in retracted condition.

• Dismounting of the folding-arm awning is the reverse of the installation procedure.

3. 

INITIAL OPERATION:

Before the initial operation of the awning, remove all objects (e.g. ladders, tools etc.) from the full travel range
(in/out) of the awning and from underneath the awning. During the trial operation, ensure that nobody is in this
area – there is a risk of injury in case of a malfunction.

3.1.  With Hand Crank:

Insert the hook of the hand crank in the eye of the driving gear and extend the awning until the cloth becomes
slack.
Turn back briefly to achieve the optimum cloth tension.
When winding up the awning for the first time, check that the covering is wound up properly and that the
articulated arms fold correctly (parallel). The covering (cloth) must always be wound up on the upper side of the
cloth roller.
When the end positions (in and out) are reached, do not force hand crank further. Otherwise the gearing may 
be damaged

3.2

With Electric Motor:

For trial operation, always use the test cable (no automatic control units etc.). In addition, the operator must be
able to see the awning. If the test cable has not yet been connected, connect to the cable of the driving gear.

The limits of the motor are factory set. If corrections are necessary on location, these can be carried out in
accordance with the “Elero Instruction Manual” which is supplied.
Fully extend awning and check switch-off point.
In maximum projection conditions, the awning is optimally stretched.
When winding up the awning for the first time, check that the covering is wound up properly and that the
articulated arms fold correctly (parallel).

Electrical installation work and connections to the mains must be carried out exclusively by a licensed electrical
company.

3.3.  Setting the Pitch / Inclination 

of the Awning:

• Half extend the awning.

• Remove the screws from the underside of side covers (1) and 

remove the covers.

• Slightly loosen hex-head screws (2) with ring spanner or ratchet 

with SW17 socket (do not remove fully!). 

• For fine adjustment, slightly lift to relieve the weight and turn 

threaded pin (4) as appropriate. 

If the adjustment of the threaded pin as such is not sufficient, the 
cylinder pin can be inserted in a different bore (12° offset per bore).

• To insert the cylinder pin in another bore, also relieve weight on the

arm, then insert cylinder pin in the correct bore and perform fine
adjustment.

In the event of a significant change of the inclination setting (more than 12°), the arms must be adjusted
alternately.

• After the arm adjustment, firmly tighten screws (2).

• Put on covers and secure with screws (1)
