5 - AWNING ASSEMBLY
IMPORTANT
Before starting assembly, the person appointed to do the job must have cut the pieces
to suit the size of the awning that is to be obtained (see tab. par. 3.3).
If there are no supports for assembling the
awnings on the square bar, define the dis-
tance of the brackets (see fig. 4) and position
them on the awning assembly frame.
Assemble the fabric (see ref. 1 fig. 5) with
the roller tube (see ref. 2 fig. 5) and roll it up
completely.
Insert the cap with hole (see ref. 3 fig. 6) on
the side opposite the control (see ref. 4 fig. 6).
MANUAL AWNING:
Insert the cap with square pin (see ref. 5 fig.
7) in the roller tube (see ref. 6 fig. 7).

MOTOR-OPERATED AWNING:
Insert the motor (see ref. 7 fig. 8) in the roller
tube (see ref. 8 fig. 8).
ATTENTION
These instructions are of a general nature, so
you must follow the ones given in the motor
manual.
Insert the square bar (see ref. 9 fig. 9) in the
two brackets positioned previously (see ref.
10 fig. 9) and block it.
Fit the arm supports (see ref. 11 fig. 10) onto
the square bar in the correct positions (see
tab. par. 3.4), (box spanner 13).
Preassemble the plate (see ref. 12 fig. 11) in
the terminal bar connecting kit (see ref. 13
fig. 11), (Allen wrench 5). The screws must
not be fully tightened.
ATTENTION
The arm is provided with a safety band that
blocks the tightening mechanism. Do not
remove this band until the awning has been
completely assembled. Failure to respect the
correct assembly procedure may cause seri-
ous harm to persons, animals and things in
the vicinity.
ATTENTION
NEVER reuse the arm lock after removing it.

Assemble the arms (see ref. 16 fig. 13) on the
respective levers.
Fit the plate with pin (see ref. 17 fig. 14) on
the roller support which goes on the side op-
posite the control (Allen wrench 5, combina-
tion spanner 10).
MANUAL AWNING:
Assemble the crank (see ref. 18 fig. 15),
choosing the position of the screws to suit its
inclination (Allen wrench 5).
MOTOR-OPERATED AWNING:
Assemble the motor plate (see ref. 19 fig. 16).

Assemble the roller tube (see ref. 20 fig. 19),
including the fabric, previously rolled up, into
the newly fixed roller support and fit the sec-
ond roller support onto the square bar like the
previous one.
ATTENTION
To remove the roller support from the square
bar: 1) slacken the support screw but do not
remove it. 2) strike the head of the screw with
a rubber hammer to release the fixing wedge
from the square bar. If necessary, repeat the
operation from point 1). 3) slip the support
off the square bar. Use the rubber hammer if
necessary, gently striking the lower part of the
support.
If provided, assemble the compensator sup-
port (see ref. 21 fig. 20) (see tab. 4).

fig.21
If the arm holder is to be used (see ref. 22 fig.
21), proceed as follows:
insert the arm holder in the groove in the ter-
minal bar (with the aid of a rubber hammer);
assemble the terminal bar, inserting the fab-
ric in the ogive (see ref. 23 fig. 23) insert the
plate of the terminal bar connecting kit and
lightly tighten the screws.

fig.18
Fit the roller support on the square bar (see
fig. 17), (side opposite the control). Check that
the support is right against the square bar.
Tighten the screw TCCE M8 (Allen wrench 6).
ATTENTION
Do not use the screwdriver.

Push the arms towards the square bar, cen-
tre the terminal bar with the fabric; once this
has been checked, the terminal bar connector
screws can be tightened (Allen wrench 5).
ATTENTION
Ensure that the terminal bar is firmly fixed
to the arms to prevent their opening without
control.
If the arm holders are not used, proceed as
follows:
Assemble the terminal bar inserting the fabric
in the ogive (see ref. 23 fig. 23) in the terminal
bar. Sliding the terminal bar, check that the
2 plates of the terminal bar connections are
in their proper place and proceed as in figure
22.

After having checked the tightness of the
terminal bar connecting screws, remove the
bands from the arms and open the awning.
Fix the fabric to the terminal bar. Perform two
awning opening/closing cycles.

6 - REGULATING THE AWNING
Once the awning has been assembled, to check that all the components are correctly
fitted you must:
»Make 2-3 test cycles of opening/closing the awning.
»Regulate any components that prevent the correct and unimpeded opening and closing move-
ment of the awning.
ATTENTION
Ensure that there are no persons, animals or things in the vicinity while opening/clos-
ing the awning.
Regulating the awning:
slacken the side screw (see ref. 26 fig. 27)
of the arm support (Allen wrench 10). To
increase the inclination slacken the socket-
head screw (see ref. 27 fig. 27), (Allen wrench
8). To decrease the inclination tighten the
socket-head screw, raising the terminal bar.
After regulation, check that the terminal bar
is perfectly horizontal.
With the awning almost closed, check that
the arms are parallel.
If they are not parallel, tighten or slacken the
dowel (see ref. 28 fig. 28) in the lever (Allen
wrench 3), accompanying the arm.
