System Information
The Solera® Manual Pull Strap Awning extends and retracts with the easy-to-use pull strap. The Solera Manual
Pull Strap Awning features an internal spring system that extends and retracts the awning. Additionally, the
friction joint allows for rain dump and adjustable pitch features, and there is no rafter arm to lock in place. The
friction joint also provides added stability.
This manual provides operational procedures for Solera Manual Pull Strap Awning. Operating the Solera
Manual Pull Strap Awning in any other manner than described may result in personal injury, damage to the
recreational vehicle or the awning assembly as well as voiding the Lippert Components Limited Warranty.

Operation
Extending the Awning
1. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 1), if equipped, and unlock the latch (Fig. 2).
NOTE: This latch is optional and may or may not be installed on one or both support arms.
2. Using the pull rod, place the "L" end of the rod on top of the cam lock (Fig. 3A) and pull down on the lock
to release it (Fig. 3).
3. Insert the pull rod into the pull strap (Fig. 4).
4. Pull strap to chest height using the pull rod. Using hands to grasp the strap, walk the awning outward,
keeping in front of the roll tube at all times (Fig. 5).
NOTE: Extension is considered complete when the fabric is completely unrolled, the valance seam is visible
and a section of the roll tube is exposed (Fig. 6). The exposed part of the roll tube will be under the
awning upon full extension. Also, check to make sure the cam lock is on top of the roll tube.
Tying the roll tube down once extended will not allow the free floating support arms to work as designed
and may cause damage to the awning or RV.

Retracting the Awning
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch (See Adjusting Pitch section).
1. Grasp the strap and pull slightly (Fig. 7) to release pressure on the cam lock (Fig. 7A) and disengage the
cam lock.
2. While holding the strap in hand, walk the awning toward the coach until the strap is about chest
height (Fig. 8).
3. Insert pull rod into the pull strap.
4. Walk awning all the way in until it stops (Figs. 9 and 10). Remove pull rod from strap.
5. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 11), if equipped. Lock the latch to secure the awning in place (Fig. 12).
NOTE: This latch is optional and may or may not be installed on one or both support arms. If not installed,
awning is secured and ready for transportation.

Maintenance - All Solera Awnings
Fabric Care
If the awning is rolled up while wet, roll it out and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before rolling it up again.
This will help prevent the formation of mildew and add greatly to the life of the awning. Mildew does not form
on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.
NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼cup of dish soap and 5 gallons of
warm water. Liberally slosh the mixture on the top of the fabric and roll up the awning for 5 minutes.
This will apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Roll the awning back out and hose off
with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Allow the fabric to dry before rolling up.
Pitch
Fig. 13 Fig. 14
Adjusting Pitch - All Solera Awnings
NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of excess water and may dump a significant amount of
water without notice.
1. Pitch can be set manually by adjusting the articulating arm to tip one side of the awning to allow water
runoff.
2. Extend the awning to desired position.
3. Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the
joint of the articulating arm until desired pitch is set (Fig. 13) to allow for water runoff. Do not push the
articulating arm up past straight. This will put tension on the gas strut, which can cause the strut to break.
Belleville washers and bolt (Fig. 14A) allow for the joint to remain in the position set by the operator.
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.
NOTE: If the articulating arm does not hold position, it can be tightened by adjusting the bolt (Fig. 14A) in the
center of the articulating arm.

Troubleshooting
Solera Pull Strap Awning Basic Troubleshooting Chart
What’s Happening? What should be done?
Awning won’t open or close.
If optional travel locks are installed, make sure that they
have been unlocked.
Make sure cam lock is flipped to the extend position.
Awning pitch won’t stay in the flat position.
Check for bad gas strut.
Check pitch arm bolt for proper tension. (High winds can
cause the pitch arm to deviate from the flat position due
to the built-in safety feature of the awning.
Make sure all three washers are in the proper location of
the pitch arm.
Awning doesn’t close all the way.
The awning is considered completely closed as long as
the outer arm is overlapping the mount arm. This overlap
can vary.
Make sure there are no obstructions in the support arm
assemblies preventing the awning from closing.
Verify the fabric is square from unit to roll tube and is
rolling up straight on the roll tube.
Awning seems to wobble when extending or
retracting.
Make sure the bolts that hold the head to the support
arm assemblies are tight.
Make sure the end caps are seated properly on the roll
tube.
Make sure the shaft coming out of the head going to the
end cap isn’t bent.
Make sure the mount arms are properly secured to the
wall.
Make sure no part of the support arm assemblies are
bent.
Make sure the wear collar spacers are all properly located
in the support arm assemblies.
Awning will not stay in the rolled out position.
Check the cam lock. Signs of a faulty cam lock include:
- The absence of a clicking noise when the awning is rolled
out.
- The awning rolling back up after it is placed in the stop
position.
