PATTY O’ROOMTM INSTALLATION
PROCEDURE:
1. The first step to insure a good installation of a Patty
O’Room is to park the RV on flat and level surface.
2. Open the awning so that the slope of the canopy ap-
proximates the angle of the side panels. (The Patty
O’Roommaybeenjoyedwiththeawningsupportarms
in the Patio Position as well as in the RV Pivot Posi-
tion.)Make certain that awning fabricisstretched taut,
and the roller tube is level. See FIG. 2.
3. There is a 3/16” diameter poly rope sewn into the top
edgeofthefrontpanels.The frontpanelsaretobehung
from the roller tube by inserting the poly rope into the
groove/slot in the left hand end cap and sliding it the
entire length of the roller tube. This groove should be
facingtheground.
4. Checkthegroove/slot intheendcapforburrsand sharp
edges.Removeany burr or sharp edges usingaflator
round file. See FIG. 3.
5. Zip door and panels together to make the front screen
assembly. The door may be installed on either end of
thefrontorbetweenpanels.
6. Whileonepersonpulls on the leading edge of thefront
assembly, a second person feeds and guides the pan-
els into the groove. Spray the groove with a dry Teflon
spraylubricant to make this operation easier.See FIG.

NOTE:Asmaller Patty O’Room usedwith a larger aw-
ning may be located in a similar fashion as long as the
zipperateach end of the front panel isusedasa guide

8. Measurethedistancefromtheedge of the awning fab-
rictothe center of the hole intherollertube. This is the
dimension for the location of the pole holder. See FIG.

9. Using a measuring tape, measure and mark the same
dimension on the side of the coach below the awning
rail as measured in step 8. Place pole holder directly
belowawning rail. See FIG. 5
10. Place the pole holder under the awning rail on the line
and mark its center point. Use 1/8” drill bit to make a
pilot hole. See FIG. 5.

SincethePattyO’Room comes in anadjustableheight,
it is designed such that adjustment for height can be
achieved by shortening the bottom of the panels. This
isdonebyfoldingtheexcessfabricatthebottomofthe

Thefabricmay be foldedbyfoldingbackandforth upon
itself as shown in FIG. 15, or by rolling the fabric as
shown in FIG. 16. Either step is repeated until fabric
