2. MOUNTING
2.1 TOOLS, RESOURCES AND MATERIALS
Transport the awning to the site of installation, ensuring that the orientation is correct.
The location of the drive side is indicated on the packaging.
Securetheinstallationzone(thesecuredzonemustbeatleastequivalenttothesizeofthefullydeployedawning).
If the awning is hoisted to higher awning positions with ropes, the awning must be removed from the packaging. When
attaching the hoisting ropes, ensure that the awning is properly fastened, but not damaged. Hoist the awning exclusi-
vely in horizontal position and evenly.
Failure to comply may result in collapsing of the awning and putting the health of persons at risk!
Before commencing the installation, please verify whether the type and number of brackets is in conformity with the order and
whether the mounting substrate is the same as that stated on your order.
If significant differences make the safe installation of the awning seem doubtful, please contact the manufacturer of the system and
a mounting/installation specialist.
2.2 INSTALLATION PREPARATON
1.2 GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
The NEO awning has been designed and manufactured in conformity with
DIN EN 13561. However, when the awning is mounted or operated, the persons involved in the respective activity may
be put at a risk if the relevant instructions are not observed.
Only qualified and duly specialized companies or trained specialist personnel may be permitted to mount the awning.
Always observe the information and notes in the Mounting and Operation Instructions.
A failure to observe the relevant information will render the manufacturer’s liability null and void.
Modification of the design or configuration of the awning is permitted only after consultation with the manufacturer or
an authorized representative.
The occupational safety and accident prevention regulations specific to each country must be complied with.
In particular, a person performing special work at height must be suitably secured.
The notes on the product and its packaging must be observed.

2.4 MOUNTING HEIGHT AND POSITION OF THE BRACKETS
DeterMination of the Mounting height for wall-MounteD awningS:
The mounting height depends on the extended length and inclination of the awning. Please refer to the drawing on the right for
basic orientation. Always ensure that there is sufficient headroom.
requireD MiniMuM nuMber of trl bracketS:
The following tables indicate the number of standard supplied brackets required for mounting the NEO awning to a con-crete
base using the wall bracket and bracket plates.

Mounting height:The awning can
produce crushing forces and shear stresses,
for instance between the drop profile and the
casing, on the jointed arms and at the point
where different profiles meet.
In the interest of human safety, the mounting
height must be at least 2.50m. If the situ-
ation requires a mounting height less than
the stated minimum height, it is necessary
to operate the awning manually or with a
switch mounted at a location from where the
moving parts can be observed.
The drop profile must reflect a minimum
distance of 40 cm from fixed objects.

In coupled systems, note that after insertion into the brackets, the systems
have to be pushed about 7 cm towards one another.
poSition of the bracketS:
The brackets should be placed as close as possible to the connection points on the arms. The following sketches illustrate
thebestpossibledistributionofbrackets.Dimension>A<shouldbeamaximumof300mm.
DrillingS for bracketS:
Transfer the drilling outlines of the brackets to the deter-
mined bracket positions.
Select the appropriate drill bit for the respective
base material and mounting method.

Reduction of forces can be achieved by increasing the number of bracketsin
thevicinityofthearmsorbyusingbracketplates(seeadjoiningfigure).
Insulating layer removed
Spacer tube
Mounting on therMally inSulateD façaDeS:
Insulating plaster and full multi-layer thermal insulation
are not pressure stable. Therefore, it is necessary to use
distancers for the entire surface of the awning brackets or
at least for the area around the screws. The picture on the
right illustrates one possible variant:
bracket Mounting:
First attach and align both outer brackets. Using a string,
accurately align all other brackets precisely to the outer
brackets. Even out irregularities of the base by using
suitable spacers. Then tighten all screws and check that
brackets are firmly attached.
for a rain pelMet:
Prior to mounting the system, push the support
onto the installation tube and secure it with the threaded
pin on the underside.
(Forthefinalinstallationoftherainpelmet,
seeSection3.4.oftheInstallationInstructions).
Ensure that sufficient personnel is available to lift the awning.
The awning weighs up to 80kg; the weights are defined on the
packaging.
Slidetheawningandsupporttubeintothebracketsfromthefront.Lightly
grease the threads of the fixing screws and insert them into the drillholes
from below, then secure them with square nuts.
Straighten the awning laterally. Tighten all fixing screws.

Electrical installation work and connections to the mains must be carried out exclusively by a licensed electrical company.
In the case of awnings operated with a switch, the switch must be positioned in sight of the drop profiles, but at least
0.4 m away from moving parts, and at a height corresponding to national regulations concerning handicapped persons
(preferablylessthan1.30m).
