SITING 
Choose  a  site  that is flat  and, if  possible,  protected 
from  the  wind.    Try  to  set  up  your  awning  with  the 
doors facing away from the wind. 
 
SET UP 
To protect your awning from dirt and damage, it may 
be beneficial to lay a groundsheet or awning carpet 
down before unpacking. 
 
Unpack the awning, separate and identify the differ-
ent  parts  (a  frame  diagram  is  included  with  these 
instructions).  At this stage you may wish to zip out 
the four wall panels.  This will make it easier to han-
dle the awning roof. 
 
Slide the awning beading, on the rear of the awning 
roof,  through  the  caravan  awning  channel  until  it  is 
in your required position (A).  The awning should be 
positioned central on the caravan.  
Attach the bracket pads to the beading on the inside 
of the roof (B).  There are three or five brackets de-
pending upon the size of the awning. One should be 
positioned  in  the  middle  of  the  awning  and  one  in 
each  of    the  rear  corners.    Undo  the  turn-screw  to 
loosen the clamp, attach and then retighten. Do not 
worry  too  much  about  positioning  as  these  can  be 
adjusted when the awning is set up.  On larger awn-
ings  the  two  intermediate  bracket  pads  should  be 
attached when the awning is set up. 
Identify  the  different  parts  of  the  awning  frame  and 
roughly  lay  them  out  under  the  awning  canvas  in 
their  approximate  positions.    Go  inside  the  awning 
and  taking  bracket  (1)  pass  this  through the  hole in 
the  centre  apex  of  the  awning.    The  arm  with  the 
plastic  adjusting  clamp  should  pass  through  to  the 
outside.  Attach leg (7) to the centre bracket but do 
not  extend  the  leg  above  head  height.    Locate  the 
hook on the end of the roof rafter (4)  into the centre 
bracket pad (C) and extend it so that some pressure 
is exerted on the front bracket (D).  Take one of the 
apex  to  eave  poles  (10)  and  attach  to  one  side  of 
the centre bracket (E).
