Operating the awning
Positioning the struts on the ground
!
WARNING! Beware of injury
• Only position the struts on solid ground.
• Secure the struts from slipping.
➤ Position the struts vertically underneath the front panel.
➤ Secure the struts with pegs (fig. 8, page 5).
➤ Position one of the struts slightly lower so that the front panel hangs at an angle.
This allows rain to run off more easily (fig. 9, page 5).
Securing the struts on the vehicle
You can secure the awning on your vehicle directly if you have already mounted the
latches for the struts.
➤ Slide the cover of the latch up (fig. 0, page 5).
➤ Fit the struts into the latch (fig. 0, page 5).
➤ Slide the cover of the latch down (fig. 0, page 5).
➤ Position one of the struts slightly lower so that the front panel hangs at an angle.
This allows rain to run off more easily (fig. a, page 6).
Mounting the tensioning arm (fig. b, page 6)
Awnings with a length of 4 metres or more need to have a tensioning arm fitted in the
middle of the awning. This prevents the awning from sagging.
➤ Slide the tensioning rod together.
➤ Fit the top end of the tensioning arm into the attachment on the housing.
➤ Slide the other end of the tensioning arm into the attachment in the front panel.
