STEP 4: Mounting the Wall Brackets
1. Now that the bolts are securely in the wall, remove the nuts that are loosely
placed over the bolts.
2. Place a wall bracket onto one set of bolts. This should be an easy fit if the
bolt holes are properly aligned.
3. Once the wall bracket is resting on the bolts, place a washer over the bolt,
then secure it with a nut, as shown in the diagram below.
4. The brackets MUST sit firmly on the wall. If there is any movement, you
must tighten it more.
5. Repeat this step for each of the wall brackets. Once you do this, all wall
brackets will be securely in place.
STEP 5: Mounting the Awning
1. Now that the wall brackets are secure and in place, it is time to
install the awning onto the brackets.
2. At least two ladders or sturdy chairs are required to install the
awning.
3. Put the original expansion bolts on the wall brackets and
tighten them.
4. Finally, fasten all expansion bolts.
5. Using the hand crank or a motor (if applicable), fully open your
awning. The front bar should be level.
6. Congratulations! Your awning is installed. If you are happy
with the height of the front bar (awning pitch), sit back and
enjoy! If not, please read on.

ADJUSTING THE AWNING PITCH/ANGLE
Each awning comes with a pre-set pitch (angle) that is considered ideal. However, if you need to make an adjustment, it
can be done in just a few easy steps.
Note: Be sure that the front bar is adjusted to be completely
even. Any misalignment will result in improper retraction.
IMPORTANT: Raising the front bar will reduce the pitch
(angle) of the fabric, thus increasing the risk of rain
water pooling on the fabric. To prevent the awning from
collapsing due to rain water weight, you must retract
the awning when unattended. Failure to do so could
result in a broken awning or personal injury.
