The following modifications can be carried out retrospectively on your awning by your markilux specialist.
•
Replacement of the awning cover
•
Installation of a motor
•
Retrofitting an automatic control system. In principle a motor drive must be available. Ask your specialist dealer for solar and wind
sensors, remote control, etc.
Hang the articulated winding handle with the magnetic spherical
bearing in the gear eyelet and hold the crank rod with one hand on
the upper and one hand on the lower turning handle. During the
operating procedure, pull the crank slightly towards the operator.
If the gear eyelet is on the right-hand side of the front profile (as
illustrated):
Extension: turn the crank anti-clockwise.
Retraction: turn the crank clockwise.
If the gear eyelet is on the left side, the directions of rotation are
exactly the opposite.
When retracting and extending the awning, the crank rod
must be removed from the gear eye, as otherwise the cover
support tube and the front profile of the awning suffer damage.
Remove the crank rod from the gear eye after retraction or extension,
and store the crank rod in a safe place. If the crank rod should
remain in the gear eyelet, it must be secured against uncontrolled
movements (e.g. in case of wind).
Shadeplus with manual transmission
Direction of rotation during retraction Shadeplus
If the winding direction is wrong, the valance bottom profile will not
close shortly at the front blind.
Tip: if the valance bottom profile does not retract flush into the front
profile, extend the shadeplus cover completely and retract with the
same rotary movement of the crank. Afterwards operate the crank in
the opposite rotating direction when extending and retracting.
