Unwind
fabric
one
revolution
before
feeding
aw-
ning
fabric
into
awning
rail.
This
will
allow
enough
space
between
side
wall
and
awning
hardware
to
connect
wires
in
Step
D.
Important:
Do
not
remove
more
than
one
revolution
of
fabric.
3.
With
one
person
grasping
each
arm
assembly,
carefully
lift
the
entire
assembly
to
an
upright
po-
sition.
Important:
Keep
the
two
arm
assemblies
parallel
to
each
other
to
avoid
excessive
twisting
and
possible
damage
to
the
assembly.
4.
Walk
the
awning
to
the
end
where
the
awning
rail
was
prepared.
A
third
person
is
now
required
to
feed
the
fabric
into
the
awning
rail.
The
other
two
will
walk
the
entire
awning
assembly
forward
and
into
the
desired
position.
See
FIG.

The
arm
assemblies
must
be
controlled
while
the
top
mounting
brackets
are
being
installed.
When
the
weight
of
the
FRTA
is
no
longer
supported,
the
downward
force
could
cause
the
arm
assembly
to
swing
side
ways
and
may
damage
the
sidewall
if
not
con-
trolled.
