Maintenance
Fabric Care
If the slider is rolled up while wet, roll it out and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before rolling it up
again. This will help prevent the formation of mildew and add greatly to the life of the slider. Mildew does
not form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.
NOTE:
Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼ cup of dish soap and 5 gallons of
warm water. Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the fabric and roll up the slider for 5 minutes.
This will apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Roll the slider back out and hose off
with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Allow to dry before rolling up.
Securing the Fabric
1.
Roll the awning in and out several times to ensure that the fabric is square on the roll tube.
2.
Secure the fabric in the awning rail by installing a #6 x 3/8” hex head screw through the fabric cord and
fabric 1” inside the edge of the fabric on both sides.
