If it is a legless model the arms must be approximately level for the patio awning to roll up correctly. The edges of the awning are held in place by as single small screw. Check to see the the awning is centered on the coach rail and the roller.
ADJUSTING THE ARM POSITION
For the awning to operate and close correctly, the arms must be parallel to the roller tube. If the arm sags,
the arm position can be adjusted to bring the arm parallel.
1. Open the awning 2"-3" to access the
adjustment screws located on the side of
the arm knuckle at the wall.
2. Loosen the upper screw (counterclockwise).
3. Tighten (clockwise) the lower screw to
raise the arm elbow.
NOTE: Make adjustments in quarter turn increments.
Tip: Lift the arm at the elbow while tightening the lower screw.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the arm is parallel with the roller tube.
5. Tighten the upper screw.
