2. — Zip tie both support arms around the outer arm and top pin of the mounted arm (Fig. 2).
ACAUTION
The awning arms will be under pressure from the gas strut and can kick out from the unit if not properly
secured, causing personal injury or property damage.
3. While one person holds the roll tube, remove the bolt holding the drive head assembly into the
support arm and remove the drive head assembly from the support arm (Fig. 4).
4. Remove the drive head cotter pin being sure to hold onto the drive head assembly and the roll tube as
there will be tension that needs to be released.
AWARNING
Failure to maintain control of the roll tube or the drive head assembly may result in serious injury or
property damage.
5. Slowly rotate the drive head assembly to remove tension.
6. Remove the three (3) screws holding the drive head end cap onto the roll tube (Fig. 3). Then pull drive
head assembly off (Fig. 5).

NOTE: Awnings longer than 6' will also have tension that needs to be released in the idler head assembly
prior to continuing the procedure. To do so, remove the idler head cotter pin and slowly rotate the
roll tube to release tension in the idler head's spring.

7. _ Install new end cap to the roll tube using the three square head screws that were removed in Step 3
above. Confirm cap is fully seated on the end of the roll tube. If the screws/screw holes have been
stripped consider using #10 screws to ensure a secure fit.

8. Plug the power cord into the motor by matching the black wire from power cord to black wire at the
motor. Next take the white wire from the power cord and plug it into the red wire on the motor. Make
sure to then tuck the wires down into the mount assembly to assure wires won't be pinched during
install (Figs. 6 & 7).

9. Insert the shaft from the motor head into the end cap and secure with the provided #8 wax screw
(Fig. 8).

10. Install the head mount into the arm and secure with the bolt removed in Step 3 above.

11. Repeat Steps 3 through 6 and 8-9 for the idler head side of the awning. Cut zip ties from top of arm.
Using the cordless screw gun battery (or other low voltage battery source) run the awning out by
putting the black wire from power cord to the positive side of battery and the white wire on negative.

12. Starting at the motor, run the wire approximately halfway down the outer arm (Fig. 9), then up the inner
arm (Fig. 10) to the wall mount (holes for ‘top wire’ and ‘bottom wire’ options are provided in the wall
mount extrusion) (Fig. 11). Install plastic wire covers into the outer arm (1 section), inner arm (2 sections),
and wall mount (2 sections) extrusions to secure/protect the power supply wire (Figs. 12-14). Make sure
wire is placed on the outside of the pin that joins the steel tension arm to the wall mount (Fig. 16) to
prevent damage to the wire.
