Operation

Extending the Awning

1. Make sure the black locking knobs on the

mount/rafter arm upper channel (channel #3)

(Fig. 1) are loosened and pinch the travel locks

together to release the outer arm from the

mount/rafter arm.

2. Flip the cam lock down to the roll out position.

3. Using the pull rod, start pulling the awning

outward until full extension is complete.

4. Slide the mount/rafter arms all the way to the

top of the outer arm and make sure they lock

into place.

5. Pull on the mount/rafter arm to ensure the fabric is taut and tighten the black locking knob to lock it

into place.

6. Raise the outer arms to the desired height by releasing the support arm assembly handle and allow

the outer arm upper channel (channel #1) (Fig. 1) to slide on the outer arm lower channel (channel #2)

(Fig. 1). Once to the desired height let go of the support arm assembly handle to lock the arm at this

position.

7. Slide the pull strap to one end or the other and wrap it around the arm to get it out of the way.

Optional Car Port Position

1. Once all the above steps are complete, remove the outer arm from the side of the unit by releasing the

lever on the lower mounting bracket.

2. Walk the awning out until the outer arm is straight up and down and let it set on the ground.

3. Make sure to secure the foot of the outer arm to the ground with the provided stakes.

Retracting the Awning

1. If in car port mode, remove the stakes from the foot of the outer arm. Then walk the outer arm back to

the unit and secure it to the lower mounting bracket on the sidewall of the unit. Do this for both ends.

2. Take the awning pull strap and return it to the center of the awning roll tube.

3. Lower the roll tube by holding the outer arm and releasing the support arm assembly handle on the

side. Let the outer arm upper channel (channel #1) (Fig. 1) slide down the outer arm lower channel

(channel #2) (Fig. 1) until it rests on the acorn nut. Repeat this for the other end.

4. Loosen the black locking knob and unlock the mount/rafter arm by releasing the spring clip from the

top of the head assembly. Allow the mount/rafter arm to slide all the way down toward the bottom of

the outer arm. Repeat this for both ends.

5. Take a firm hold on the awning strap and release the tension on the springs by flipping the cam lock

up to the roll in position.

6. Walk the awning in toward the unit. Hook the pull rod into the pull strap before the strap gets too high.

Using the pull rod, walk the awning to the fully-closed position.

7. Lock the arms for travel mode by compressing the outer arm and mount/rafter arm together until the

red tab disappears. Then tighten the black locking knob.

Fabric Replacement

Fabric Removal

1. Remove the drip cap (if equipped) from the end the fabric will be removed from.

2. Remove the #6 x 1/2” hex head screws located on the awning rail (2 total). Set screws aside.

3. Extend the awning out completely by sliding the mount/rafter arms all the way to the top of the outer

arm and make sure they lock into place and insert cotter pins (Fig. 2).

NOTE: If the awning is 6’ in length it will only need one cotter pin for the drive side end cap.

4. Pull on the mount/rafter arm to ensure the fabric is taut and tighten the black locking knob to lock it

into place. As a precaution, tape the cam lock in the roll out position.

5. On the end of the awning rail the fabric will be removed from, remove the upper mounting bracket

from the unit wall. Allow the mount/rafter arm to pivot out of the way.

6. Remove the drive head assembly and idler head assembly retaining fasteners from the outer arms to

separate the components (Fig. 3).

7. Working together, remove the roll tube assembly (which includes the drive/idler head assemblies)

from the awning rail and support arms by sliding the assembly along the awning rail until clear.

serious injury or property damage.

9. Working together, install the roll tube assembly (which includes the drive/idler head assemblies) to the

awning rail by sliding the assembly along the awning rail. Make sure the awning will unroll with the

printed side of the fabric up.

Failure to support the roll tube, fabric and drive/idler head assemblies during

installation may result in serious injury or property damage.

10. Unroll the fabric from the roll tube to allow the drive/idler head assemblies to be installed into the outer arms.

11. Install the previously-removed drive head assembly and idler head assembly retaining bolts into the outer

arms to secure the components.

12. Reinstall the previously-removed support arm upper mounting bracket to the unit wall.

13. Make sure the cam lock is in the roll out position and remove cotter pins from the awning heads.

14. Retract and extend the awning several times (see Operation section of manual) to ensure that the fabric is

square on the roll tube.

15. Secure the fabric in the awning rail no more than 1” inside the edge of the fabric on both ends using a #6 x

1/2” hex head screw. Install the screw down through the awning rail into the fabric and the polycord

(Fig. 7).

Solera Classic Awning Troubleshooting

What's Happening? What Should Be Done?

Awning will not extend.

Check position of the cam lock (roll out).

Ensure that the travel locks have been released from the outer arm.

Make sure the locking knob for the rafters has been loosened.

Check to see if the outer arm is resting on the mount/rafter arm. If

so, the outer arm height adjustment is not set properly.

Awning will not retract or only retracts

part way.

Make sure the mount/rafter arms have been put in the stored

position and the locking knob has not been tightened.

Check position of cam lock (roll in).

Ensure the outer arms have been placed in the closed/stored

position.

Ensure the awning has the proper tension on it.

Ensure that the mount/rafter arm is not secured to the head of the

outer arm.

Fabric is loose or sags on the edges

and middle.

Make sure that the mount/rafter arm has been pulled tight and the

locking knob is secured.

Check that the fabric is square on the unit and with the roll tube.

Make sure the fabric is properly secured to the awning rail on the

unit.

Make sure roll tube is not bent.

Locking knob will not tighten.

The nut for this is a thread part that tightens the arms together.

Open the awning and check when turning the knob that the nut

is not stripped out. If it is not stripped, it would require replacing

both parts.

Mount/rafter arm will not extend.

Make sure the locking knob has been loosened.

Make sure there is no debris in the track the arm slides in.

Make sure arm is not bent.

Awning will not roll up straight.

Check to make sure fabric is centered on roll tube and also

centered between the arms attached to the unit.

If the fabric is not centered, move the screws on both ends of the

awning and shift the fabric accordingly.

Make sure there are screws at both ends of the fabric securing it to

the roll tube and at the awning rail. If there is only one screw at one

end and not the other, the awning may not roll up correctly.

Make sure the legs are square and straight.

Awning will not stay in the rolled out

position.

Check the cam lock. Signs of a faulty cam lock include:

- The absence of a clicking noise when the awning is rolled out.

- The awning rolling back up after it is placed in the stop position.

Maintenance - Solera Awnings

Fabric Care

NOTE: If the awning is retracted while wet, extend the awning and let it dry as soon as conditions allow

before retracting. This will help prevent the formation of mildew and add greatly to the life of the

awning. Mildew does not form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.

NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼cup of dish soap and 5 gallons

of warm water. Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the fabric and retract the awning for 5

minutes. This will apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Extend the awning and hose

off with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Allow to dry before retracting.
