An awning is subject to some adverse situations: humidity, sea breeze, counterweight, wind ...
We recommend that:
Check the tightening of the screws and the limit switch after installation and regularly at the beginning and end of each season.
Never close a wet awning. Dry it if possible.
Clean the fabric and the frame at the beginning and end of each season. Caution: never use detergents.
The limit switch inclination and regulation (for awnings with eléctrical
maneuvers) are pré regulated during the use. They are
susceptible to be modified for use as shown in regulation.
A small flexion of the terminal could happen (4 to 5 cm). It is related with the arm main impulse and the fabric may be loose in
the central area .
A small difference of fabric fibers could be detected between two awnings when they were not acquired at the same time.
Folds or other effects may appear on the fabric. This not decrease away from the quality and effectiveness of the awning.
Ripples may appear on the fabric due to excess thickness caused by seams and hems which cause tensions on the winding
tube.
Use the emergency operation only in the event of a power failure, to close the awning. Using the emergency operation at
presence of energy will deregulate the motors’s limit switch end of the engine stroke. After using the security operation, make
sure the handle is in the spare outlet axis.
For electrical installation with an unstable switch, make sure you leave it in stop position after each use.
The awning balcony disintegrated
from the structure.
Screws are not the most appropriate.
Check proper placement of the supports (according to
the manual's instructions)
In case of fixing with a chemical seal, report to the
manufacturer.
