1) In determining
mounting area for your retractable awnings, 6.5 inches of space is
required above doorways, windows and under overhangs. Mounting height of your
awning should be no higher than 10' and in most cases just above
doorways. 2.) After mounting
area is determined, measure 51/4” from bottom to account for bracket
height. Using a level, draw a line, this will be the top-of-bracket line.(ill. B.) Place a mark on the wall at
the end points of the awning. Locate the studs, drill a series of small holes to
determine the edges and finally mark the center. (ill.
C) Place bracket over the center of the stud making sure
that the bracket top is even with top-of-bracket line, Attach brackets securely with lag bolts which extend at
least 2 inches into stud centers.
3) With help, lift awning to the brackets on wall, slip torsion
(square) bar into brackets. Install the retaining bolts in the
brackets. Remove plastic restraint straps from extension arms and attach
hand crank.
Your awning is now
installed and ready for use
