CHANNEL JOINER IS AGAINST THE INSIDE LEGS OF THE SUPPORT CHANNEL AND THAT
THE TWO SECTIONS THAT BUTT TOGETHER ARE EVEN.
Step 4 – Post Assembly
Determine the desired height of the posts.
Normal slope is about 1-1/2” of slope per foot of
projection. Insert the 30” section of the Post into
the 84” section for form a Standard Telescoping
Post. Where the sections join together, attach a
vise grip or clamp to the smaller section. This will
prevent the smaller section from sliding further
into the large section. Assemble all posts in a
similar fashion.
Position the end posts 6 – 12 inches in from
each end of the Support Channel. Insert the
small 1-1/4” sections of the Posts into the
Support Channel until it stops. Secure with #10 x
1/2” TEK Screws through the front and back of
the Support Channel and into the small section
of the Post. Space the remaining posts equally between the end posts and secure to the Support
Channel. If a post is spaced where a Support Channel Joiner is located, the post must be moved right
or left to be installed.
Step 5 – Awning Panel Assembly
All Awning Panels are alike. Stand up the Support Channel by
staggering the attached posts. The assembly of the Awning
Panels must begin from the right side of the Mounting Rail. Insert
the boxed end of the first Awning Panel into the Mounting Rail
with the overlapping rib extending beyond the end of the Mounting
Rail. The first panel may be secured in one of two places: 1)
through the back of the boxed end of the panel and into the
Mounting Rail, or 2) through the bottom of the Mounting Rail and
into the panel surface. Use a #10 x 3/4” Hex Head Screw.
