Operation
Extending the Awning
1. Verify the battery is fully charged and connected to the electrical system.
2. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 1), if equipped, on the drive side awning arm and unlock the latch (Fig. 2).
NOTE: This latch is optional and may not be installed.
3. Press and hold EXTEND (Fig. 3A) until the awning is extended completely.
NOTE: Extension is considered complete when the awning valance seam reaches the leading edge of the
awning tube (Fig. 4).
Over extending the awning will roll the awning back up the wrong way and could damage the system
and will void the Limited Warranty.
Tying the roll bar down once extended will not allow the free floating support arms to work as designed
and may cause damage to the awning or RV.

Adjusting Pitch
NOTE: Without manually setting pitch to the awning, the awning will pitch itself to purge excessive water
pooling in one location and may dump a significant amount of water to either end of the awning
without notice.
1. Pitch can be set manually by adjusting the articulating arm to tip one side of the awning to allow water
runoff.
2. Extend awning to desired location.
3. Choose the side of the awning for optimum or convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the joint of the
articulating arm (Fig. 5) until pitch is set to allow for water runoff. Do not push the articulating arm past
straight. This will put tension on the gas strut and can break it. The Belleville washers and bolt allow for the
joint (Fig. 6A) to remain in the position set by the operator.

Fabric Care
If the awning is rolled up while wet, roll it out and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before rolling it up
again. 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. Periodically clean vinyl or woven
acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼ cup of dish soap mixed with 5 gallons of warm water. Liberally slosh the
mixture on the top of the fabric and roll the awning up for 5 minutes. This will apply the mixture to the
bottom as well. Roll it out and hose off with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Allow to dry before rolling up.
Retracting the Awning
1. Verify the battery is fully charged and connected to the electrical system.
2. Press and hold RETRACT (Fig. 2B) until the awning is retracted completely.
3. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 2), if equipped, on the drive side awning arm and lock the latch to secure
the awning in place (Fig. 1).
NOTE: This latch is optional. If not installed, awning is secured and ready for transportation.

Manual Override
In the event of power loss or motor failure, the awning can be extended and retracted manually. Perform the
following procedure to manually retract the awning.
1. Remove rubber plug from the power head assembly exposing the manual override nut on the motor
(Fig. 7A).
NOTE: The power head is always located on the right side of the awning as it is viewed from outside of the
coach.
2. Using a ⁄” nut driver and power drill, spin the manual override nut counterclockwise to retract the
awning (Fig. 8). A ⁄” socket and ratchet can be used if a drill is not available, however it will take much
longer to retract the awning.
NOTE: Use caution when retracting manually as the use of a step stool or ladder may be required to
completely retract the awning.
3. When awning is completely retracted, remove socket or drive device and replace rubber plug in power
head assembly.
NOTE: The motor’s internal drive system prevents the awning from moving (extend or retract) on its own.
If the motor is damaged or disabled, be sure to secure the awning in the retracted position with
straps before the override nut is released.
During incidents of high wind, heavy rain or extended time away from the unit, it is advisable to retract
the awning completely to prevent damage to the awning and the RV.
