Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Mount the steel housing bracket firmly to your exterior wall using appropriate masonry fixings.
- Determine the desired extension distance (up to 300 cm) and mark the spot for the floor post.
- Secure the post to the floor using provided or suitable heavy-duty ground anchors.
Compatibility:
The unit is best suited for concrete, stone, or wooden deck surfaces. Ensure the mounting wall is sturdy enough to support the weight of the steel cassette.
Care:
- Regularly wipe the steel housing with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris.
- Keep the fabric clean by brushing off loose dirt; if wet, allow it to dry fully before retracting it for long periods to prevent mildew.
- During winter or extreme weather, consider retracting the awning fully to protect the internal spring mechanism.
