assembly to the roller tube and save.
3. Remove the spring assembly from the roller tube and set aside.
4. Insert the new spring assembly and secure to the roller tube with the #8 x 1 screw removed previously.
Calculating the Spring Winds
The Ascent spring winds are calculated based on the box length of the slide-out. To calculate the spring
winds (room closed), measure the box length IN FEET.
Box Length Winds Required
•Less than 5' Spring Winds = 4
•5' to 16' 4" Spring Winds = Number of feet
Example: Box Length = 10' 4"; spring winds = 10.
Always round down to the nearest whole number.
(XL Models)
•16' 5" to 29' 11" Spring Winds = Number of feet divided by 2
Example: Box Length = 20' 6"; spring winds = 20 divided by 2 = 10.
Always round down to the nearest whole number.
•30' of longer Spring Winds = 15
Box Length
(in feet)
as027
Adding Spring Winds
NOTE: Have a spring lock pin available. The pin should be a solid 3/16 x 1 1/4 shaft with a flat end
such as a drill bit. If using a 3/16 cotter pin, cut the two legs flush so that the end is flat.
5. Have one person firmly hold the roller tube stationary.
6. Insert a 3/8 square drive extension with handle into the spindle. Turn the handle counter clockwise to
add spring winds. One complete rotation of the spindle equals one spring wind.

7. After adding the required number of spring winds, firmly
hold the ratchet handle and roller tube and insert the
spring locking pin. The pin will only go in partially until
the 3/8 drive is removed.
8. Hold the pin in place and slowly release the ratchet
handle. When there is no pressure on the handle,
remove the square drive from the spindle. Press the
pin in as far as possible then place tape over the head
of the pin to avoid the pin coming out.
After completing the spring replacement, go to "Installing the
Roller Tube Assembly" on page 8.
ASSEMBLING THE XL ROLLER TUBE ASSEMBLY
The XL roller tube assembly is shipped in two pieces. The center splice is pre assembled in the RH half of
the roller tube. It is necessary to assembly the XL roller tube before continuing.
1. Clearly mark the RH roller tube next to the
bearing and spindle.
2. On the ground, press the two roller tube
halves tightly together. The splice can
only fit one way in the tube. For
reference, the spindle tabs on the roller
tube must both point in the same direction.
3. (Detail A) Attach the left tube half to the splice using four (4) #8 x 3/4 self-drilling screws. Match the
screw pattern in the right roller tube half.
INSTALLING THE ROLLER TUBE ASSEMBLY
If the new fabric is being installed with the replacement or modified roller tube, use the installation
instructions for "Installing the Fabric and Roller Tube" on page 5.
For the referenced Details, refer to Figure 3 "Replacing the Fabric" on page 4.
If the fabric was left on the coach:
1. Slide the roller tube onto the fabric. Make sure that the right end (spring end) of the roller tube is on the
RH side of the canopy.
2. (Detail C) After the fabric is centered, hold the polycord in the bottom of the fabric slot. Place one (1)
#10 x 2 PHSD screw through the fabric slot hole and polycord. The screw must be positioned to thread
into the metal of the roller tube slot and the edge of the polycord. The screw action will pull the
polycord further into the slot hole. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN,maximum torque 16 in-lbs.
NOTE: The attaching screws are offset from the center of the polyrods. Ensure that the polyrod is
positioned in the large diameter of the fabric slot. The screws thread into the extrusion and
the top of the polyrod.
Tip: Place a small wedge (such as a small flat blade screwdriver) between the top of the fabric and the slot to
hold the polyrod down to start the screw in the correct position. Use care to not damage the fabric.
3. After tightening the fabric in the slot from one end of the roller tube to the other end, repeat step 2 to
secure the fabric.
4. Roll the fabric onto the roller tube. Note the direction of the wrap as shown in Detail C. The view is of the RH

STANDARD MAINTENANCE
Maintaining a Carefree Ascent slide-out cover is easy. Just follow these basic steps:
•Periodically check that the fasteners are tight. Tighten if necessary.
•Keep the awning fabric clean.
FABRIC CARE
CAUTION
DO NOT USE OIL BASED CLEANERS OR ANY CAUSTIC,GRANULATED,OR ABRASIVE TYPE CLEANERS ON YOUR
CAREFREE PRODUCT.
1. One of the best ways to keep the fabric looking good and to delay the need for deep or vigorous
cleanings is to hose fabrics off on a monthly basis with clear water. This practice will help prevent dirt
from becoming deeply imbedded in the fabric. In most environments, a thorough cleaning will be
needed every two to three years.
2. When it’s time for a thorough cleaning, the fabric can be cleaned while still on the awning frame.
•For Vinyl Fabric – Use a soft brush and warm water with soap.
•For Acrylic Fabric – Use a stiff brush and warm water with soap.
3. When cleaning the fabric, it is important to observe the following:
•Always use a natural soap, never detergent.
•Water should be cold to lukewarm, never more than 100°F.
•Air-dry only. Never apply heat to the fabric.
•Always allow the fabric to dry thoroughly before rolling up the canopy.
Mildew
Mildew is a fungus growth that looks like dirt. Vinyl coated polyester fabrics are mildew resistant because
of a chemical biocide in the vinyl coating. Under ordinary conditions, mildew will not appear. However, in
areas where high temperature and humidity are common, mildew can be a problem and required the
material to be washed more frequently. Thoroughly rinse the fabric with clean water and allow to air dry
completely before rolling up the canopy.
Pooling
When water collects on the top of the fabric, this is known as "pooling". This can occur during inclement
weather or if a running air conditioner discharges over the awning. The water is dumped when the awning
is retracted. It is recommended that if water accumulates on the top; retract the room in steps (8"-12") to dump
the water. This will help prevent the fabric from stretching or distorting.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the room must be closed during wet weather (rain), close the room in
increments (approximately 6-8"). This is to allow water to run off while the room is closing and
prevent sudden pooling.
HARDWARE MAINTENANCE
•Replace any parts that become damaged.
•Periodically check all mounting hardware, screws, lags, etc., and re-tighten when necessary.
