PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
INSTALL AWNING
A. Insert Awning Fabric Into Awning Rail
1. With awning safety lock in roll down position, un-
furl awning fabric 1 revolution.
Unfurling 1 revolution will allow enough
space between RV wall and awning hard-
ware to guide fabric as it is inserted into
awning rail.
2.  LIFTING HAZARD. Use proper
lifting technique and control when lifting product.
Failure to obey this caution could result in injury.
With one person grasping each arm assembly,
carefully lift entire awning assembly upright.
Then carry awning to prepared (ared) awning
rail end. See (FIG. 15).
