10. Wind the awning up to its desired top finish position. The arms should be hanging downwards.

11. With the arms hanging downwards mark the holes where you are fixing the arm to your structure. Drill holes

and attach using bolts (See Pic 3) The arms are universal so can be fitted face or reveal fit. Make sure the

arms are fitted level. If the arms fall in line with a mortar joint move the arms inwards or outwards to miss the

mortar line.

Attach the second arm to the wall.

spring in position.

NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE THE GREY PINS UNTIL BOTH ARMS ARE ATTACHED TO

THE BOTTOM RAIL AND TO THE STRUCTURE. IF REMOVED BEFORE THE SPRING TENSION ON THE

ARM COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY

A Cassette/Pelmet is recommended with motorised awnings to protect the motor from the elements.

If no cassette has been ordered the awning will need to be installed where the motor can be protected

from the elements. Motor warranty does not cover water damage.

Caution: Like all outdoor blinds, it is prudent to retract the blind in the presence of strong winds.
