1. TOP ROLL OF FABRIC INCREASES FABRIC PITCH; THIS
ELIMINATES WATER BUILD-UP OVER THE SLIDE-OUT
ROOM. (THE NEW DESIGN ALLOWS FOR LESS
CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE TOP OF THE SLIDE ROOM
AND THE BOTTOM OF THE AWNING).
2. BUILT IN FABRIC BRUSH;THIS ELIMINATES LEAF AND
DEBRIS BUILD-UP ON AWNING FABRIC.(AS THE SLIDE
CLOSE’S THE BRUSH WIPES THE FABRIC CLEAN).
3.G-5000 DESIGN ALLOWS FOR FABRIC CHANGE
WITHOUT DISASSEMBLING THE AWNING.
4. REDESIGNED ARTICULATION ALLOWS FOR MORE
OVERCENTER TRAVEL. THIS ELIMINATES THE NEED
FOR SHIMMING OF THE LEADRAIL.
5. GIRARD PATENTED G-5000 SLIDE AWNING IS THE
ONLY SLIDE AWNING THAT MOUNTS TO THE COACH
NOT THE SLIDE ROOM. (SMALL LEAD RAIL WITH NO
“HANGOVER”ON THE SLIDEROOM IMPROVES
APPEARANCE).
6 THE DURABLE POWDER-COATED ALUMINUM
ENCASEMENT PREVENTS THE FABRIC FROM
BILLOWING WHILE IN TRANSIT AND PROTECTS
THE FABRIC FROM THE ELEMENTS WHILE NOT IN
USE.

To ensure longevity of fabric quality it is highly advisable to maintain a regular regiment of simply
brushing off daily debris and dirt from fabric. To clean the awning rinse with water. In a separate
bucket mix a mild soap in water (natural soaps are best) with a clean brush dunk into the bucket
and clean the awning with sweeping motions;rinse thoroughly to remove soap. If you decide to
use a liquid detergent you will need to reapply a water repellent treatment,such as 303 Hi-Tech
Fabric Guard or similar product. Fabric is made from 100% acrylic fiber. ( If Fabric is non-acrylic -
Soltis material use liquid detergent & water) Let fabric air dry. If you need to store your fabric,keep
in a dry ventilated area.
