Solar Panels
Accumulated dirt and soiling can affect the performance of the solar panels. Panels should be cleaned as necessary to
prevent this. Sealants around solar panel mounts should be checked annually to ensure they are in good condition.
Sealants
Roof sealants should be inspected every 6 months for condition. If the sealant has perished or adhesion has failed it
should be repaired immediately.
Canopy Lifting Mechanism
The canopy lift mechanism requires maintenance as per the maintenance schedule.
Yellow arrows indicate light lubrication with lanolin based lubricant. (Every 6 months)
Red arrow indicates protecting the spring with a lanolin based lubricant. (Every 12 months)
Roof Skirt Elastic Cord
The elastic cord surrounding the PVC roof skirt is placed to ensure the skirt pulls inward when lowering the roof. This is
an important function that protects the skirt from mechanical damage from the lifting mechanism and getting pinched
by the roof. Regular inspection and replacement when necessary is part of the maintenance schedule. The illustrations
below show the correct tension marked by a

and incorrect shown by the
