1.Open the fabric box carefully to ensure that the product is not damaged.
2.Unfold both pieces of awning fabric. You should have one large fabric piece (M) and a
valance with scalloped edge (O). You should also have three fabric liner cords (N).
3. Thread the fabric liner cords through both ends of the large awning fabric (M) as well
as the valance (O). This may be a slow process and is easier with two people.

4.Once the liner cords are threaded though the fabric, find the roller tube. Thread
the fabric and its liner cords through the slot in the roller tube all the way to the
end. Note: the fabric has a front and a back side. The back side has a hem, and
should face downwards.
5.Then thread the other end of the awning fabric through the slot in the front bar

1.Fix the bolt (P) on the hole of the roller
bar (A-2)on the right side. Screw it tightly.
Failure to check this could result in injury.
2.Find the inner square shaft on the roller tube. Insert this into the square hole on
the gear box (D-3) on the torsion bar.

3.Using a mallet, knock the roller support (D) into the right end on the roller tube
(A-2). Use a wrench to tighten the screw on the roller support.
Be sure that the safety wraps holding the two front arms
are secured on the torsion bar.
Failure to check this could result in injury.

5.After above steps, it is safe to cut the safety wraps that hold the arms and torsion
bars.
Awning assembly is complete now!
4. Two screw nuts (F) need to be installed on the arm-bar links (Q). First insert the
arm-bar links (Q) to the holes on the end of both arms. Then tighten the screws on
the arm-bar links and fix the links and arms with two screw nuts (F). (Note: Do not
fully tighten the screw nuts, leaving about 13mm/0.5" space in between.)
If you find that the fabric wraps unevenly or that the two
arms won't open together at the same time, look at the
stability of the two arms. Solution: adjust the arm bar
link's position on the front bar outwards, as necessary.

Specification
Notes about Wall Mounting
This awning can be secured to reinforced concrete, brick and wooden wall.
Expansion bolt is for reinforced concrete, brick.
We recommend a professional installer for the safest and most secure installation.
Never attempt to secure the wall brackets to loose wall stones or any surfaces that are
not absolutely firm!
Proper location of the brackets is the most important aspect
of the awning installation. It is critical that you fasten all
the mounting brackets to studs, joists, headers or other
major structural components.

1.Measure the length of your awning along the wall where you intend to install it. This
line will be the highest point of your awning and align with the top of the wall bracket.
Use a leveler to make a chalk line across the distance.
2.Important: Double check that the line is level all the way across.
3.Be sure that the line is centered over the patio door, window, or other feature, if
applicable.
Measuring the Mount Site
01 EN
It is important to take the awning’s drop area into consideration before bolting your wall
mounts. If you would like to mount above a patio door, for example, please leave at least
20cm above the door frame and be sure that the awning does not interfere with opening
and closing the door. The drop angle can only be changed minimally, so take this into
consideration when deciding where to place your awning.
We recommend that the
awning surface make an
angle of about 80 degrees to
the wall when open.
Recommended installation height: 2.5m-4m.
The ideal drop angle (when fully extended) has
already been set in the factory, so you may not
have to change the pitch/angle.
CALCULATIONS:
You can use the following formula to calculate the
appropriate angle.
C = A + 0.17*L
A = The desired height of the front bar
L = The length of the arm stretched out
C = The height of the wall brackets
Failure to securely fasten all the brackets to the wall could
result in the collapse of the awning and cause personal
injury or death.
WARNING

4.Now that you have a straight, centered line, measure the middle point and mark it.
This is where the middle wall bracket will be installed.
5.Take a wall bracket and place the top of it, completely level, under the line, as shown
in the diagram below. With chalk or a pencil, mark the position of all the wall brackets
and their bolt holes. Please note the distance between each wall bracket should be the
same.
1.Now that you have a straight level
line across the wall with the locations of
the wall brackets and their bolt holes
marked, you can drill holes to mount
the brackets. link's position on the front
bar outwards, as necessary.
Drilling the Bolt Holes
02 EN
Awning < 3.3m Requires only 2 wall brackets total: one for each end of the torsion bars.
Requires 3 wall brackets total: one for each end, and one in the middle.
Requires 4 wall brackets total: one for each end, and two in the middle.

Drill 10cm deep

2. Using a 14mm masonry drill bit, drill the first bolt hole approximately 10cm deep, as
shown in the diagram. This must be drilled through solid brick or concrete to offer the
necessary support for the awning.
3. Drill the remaining holes exactly as in step 2.
1.Now that all of your holes are drilled, then insert the expansion bolts.
2.It may be necessary to drive the bolts in with a wooden (or other non-metallic) mallet.
3.Make sure that the bolts are firm in place, yet let them stick out of the wall
approximately 25mm or less-enough that the wall bracket can be installed onto them.
Firmly tighten the bolts with a 19mm hex wrench. It is best to use the hex wrench with
a closed end rather than an open end to avoid damaging the nut, should it slip.
Preparing for Mounting
03 EN
All bolt holes must be aligned vertically and horizontally to
ensure that the awning hangs straight.
Double check alignment before drilling if you are not certain.
WARNING
If a mallet is necessary for installation, we recommend placing the nut
on the screw (loosely) before hammering to avoid damaging the bolt
threads.
The diameter and depth of your mounting holes must be the
same size as the expansion bolts.
WARNING
17

1.Now that the bolts are
securely installed 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.
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 installed in place.
Mounting the Wall Brackets
04 EN
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 torsion bars on the wall brackets and tighten them with the hex screws.
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.

Note: Be sure that the front bar is adjust to be completely even. Any misalignment will
result in improper retraction.
COMMON MISTAKES
Correct operation Wrong operation
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.
WARNING
When the front bar touches the roller as shown in the figure,
don’t try to make them closer, otherwise the product may be
damaged.
