• Allow for sufficient clearance between the awning
fabric and the entry door to accommodate the
awning slope.
• Do
not
allow the corner of the entry door to contact
the awning fabric. Otherwise, premature wear or
tearing of the awning fabric could occur.
5.1 Installing the Door Roller and
Edge Guard
Squared-corner entry doors and some rounded-corner
doors may contact the awning fabric and cause damage.
To prevent damage, you must install a door roller kit (not
included). See “Optional Components” on page 4
to order door roller kits.

If the awning does not need a door roller, skip this
section and proceed to “Determining the Awning
Location” on page 6.

A slight “travel line” may appear where the door
roller contacts the awning fabric. This is normal and
does not affect the integrity of the awning fabric.
5.2 Determining the Awning Location
I
If your Oasis 975 model did not include the awning
rail, you may order it separately (see “Optional
Components” on page 4), or you may use an
awning rail from a previous Oasis awning if the rail is
not damaged.
