NOTE:
The idler head does
NOT
have a cam lock, and
therefore, the cotter pin is holding all the tension of the
spring assembly. Make sure to have a firm hold with pliers
prior to removing the cotter pin.
NOTE:
The drive side cam lock
MUST
be in the roll out
position.
NOTE:
Be sure to handle with care and always have a
secure hold of the idler head.
NOTE:
Make sure the idler head is facing the same direction
at the same angle as the drive head when sliding the idler
head into the roll tube (with cotter pin in the idler head).

complete, remove the cotter pins from each end of the roll
tube and retract the awning.

Adjust the height of the roll tube using the support arm
lever
