11. ASSEMBLY OF ROLLER TUBE & FABRIC:
Remove the two Roller tubes from the box
(remove them from their protective plastic wrap),
each will have open ends. Locate the Roller Tube
Joiner, and the bag of 8-pcs #6 Philips screws.
Insert the Joiner into the open end of one of the
roller tubes, align the holes and insert four
screws and tighten snug,
DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
Insert the other Roller tube over the exposed end
of the Roller Tube Joiner and using the remaining
#6 Philips Head screws insert the screws and
tighten snug,
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Now take the assembled Roller Tube and orient it such that the Square end of the tube is
on the same side as your gear mechanism on the wall.
Open the bag / box with your awning fabric,
do not cut through the plastic or cardboard
as you may cut the fabric
. Open the fabric up, and locate the open ends sewn into the
fabric. Orient the fabric so the hem is facing down. Locate the 6mm diameter Plastic Spline
and insert it through the open ends of the Fabric allowing it to hang out each end of the
fabric evenly. Insert a Spline the same way on the other side of the fabric. With some
assistance slide the Spline and the fabric into the channels from one end of the Roller tube;
carefully slide the fabric into the channel, be sure not to damage the fabric on the ends of
the aluminum tube ends. Centre the fabric on the Roller tube; the fabric should be
approximately 5cm shorter than the roller tube on each end. Now with assistance rotate the
roller tube evenly to roll the fabric around the tube over the top until
it’s almost completely
rolled around the tube.
12. ASSEMBLY OF VALANCE TUBE & FABRIC:
Remove the two Valance tubes from the box (remove them
from their protective plastic wrap), each will have open
ends. Orient the tubes such that the drilled holes in the back
of the Valance tubes are at the joint. Locate the Valance
Tube Joiner and the bag of 4-pcs #6 Philips screws. Insert
the Joiner into the open end of one of the Valance Tubes,
align the holes and insert two screws and tighten snug,
DO
NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Insert the other Valance Tube over the exposed end of the
Valance Tube Joiner and using the remaining #6 Philips Head
screws insert the screws and tighten snug,
DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
In the same manner as you install the fabric in the ROLLER TUBE, repeat
this process to install the Awning Fabric in the Top Channel of the Valance
tube as Shown in the photo to the right.
Install the Fabric Valance
Locate the Fabric Valance, and insert a 6mm plastic Spline in its open
channel, as you did with the main fabric. Insert the Spline and fabric in the
lower channel on the Valance tube as shown in the photo to the right.
