EPLACING THE

RM

 

1.  Open the awning to the maximum extension or as wide as possible.  This is to minimize the spring 

tension in the arms during this procedure. 

2. Disconnect power. 

3.  Use a scaffold, ladder or other means to firmly support the lead rail. 

4.  If replacing the LH (motor side) arm, carefully remove the LED harness from the wire channel on top of the 

arm.  Use care to not bend, break or compromise the harness. 

5.  Detach the arm from lead rail.  Follow the instructions on page 8 “

”. 

6.  In the case, loosen the large bolt on the side of the knuckle housing until the arm is free.  Save the bolt, 

washer and bushing, these will be reused. 

7.  Remove the arm and set on a work surface. 

8.  On a work surface, remove the lead rail connector and the 

case knuckle from the old arm. 

9.  Install the lead rail connector onto the new arm. 

10. Install the case knuckle onto the new arm.  Ensure that the 

arm stop is positioned as shown.  Secure the pin with the 
M5 setscrew, torque to 15-20 in-lbs. 

11. Firmly hold the new arm closed, remove the shipping ties or 

wrap.  Allow the arm to partially open approximately 6"-8" and 
temporarily tie the arm in that position. 

12. If the LED Harness is routed on the replacement arm:  

Attach a piece of wire channel to the top of each section of 
the arm using double sided tape.  If using new channel, cut 
each piece slightly shorter than the arm extrusion. 

13. Lift the arm up and slide the arm and lead rail connector 

into the lead rail to the mark made previously. 

14. Tighten the M10 connector setscrew.  Torque to 50-60 in-lbs. 

15. While firmly holding the arm, remove the temporary ties and allow the arm to extend. 

16. Position the case knuckle and secure to the knuckle housing using the M10 x75mm bolt, washer and 

bushing that was removed previously.  Torque bolt to 30-35 in-lbs. 

17. For the LH arm, route the LED harness through the wire channel.  At the arm joints, arch the harness 

slightly to avoid binding.  Do not twist the cable. 

Tip:  Use a small tool, such as a flat bladed screwdriver to gently spread open the channel then insert 
the cable.  Do this for the entire length of the channel until the cable is fully inserted. 

18. After replacing the arm, it will be necessary to adjust the pitch to align the lead rail and case.  See page 

Error! 

Bookmark not defined.

. 

19. Adjust the motor limits as required.  See page 2. 

20. Attach the lead rail end plate.  Torque screws to 25-30 in-lbs.
