lation in the correct direction for fitting to
prevent turning it in small spaces.
If the awning has to be lifted to an elevated
area with the help of ropes, remove it from
the packaging and connect it with hauling
ropes so that it cannot slip out and pull it up
evenly in a horizontal position.
Proceed in the same manner when uninstal

The awning must be protected against
penetrating damp when in storage!
Awnings must be stacked and unstacked so
that they do not prove a hazard to persons
