Solera®Hybrid Awning

Installation and Owner’s Manual

(For Aftermarket Applications)

CCD-0001259

Introduction

The Solera®Hybrid Awning is the next best thing to a

power awning. Simple crank operation makes setting up

camp fast and easy, and the Hybrid locks into place when

retracted for safe travel.

Additionally, the pitch arm assembly allows for rain dump

and adjustable pitch features. The pitch arm assembly also

provides added stability.

This manual refers to the “drive side” and “idler side”

throughout for various instructions. The “drive side” is the

right hand side of the awning when facing the awning from

the exterior of the unit. The “drive side” head has a crank

eyelet. The “idler side” is the left hand side of the awning

when facing the awning from the exterior of the unit.

Prior To Installation

All screws supporting the awning assembly must have a

backer within the structure of the wall of the unit. Refer to

the unit manufacturer for proper location.

Setting the Awning Height

Best commercial practice for setting the awning height

is to push the top of the support arm assemblies up to

beushwiththebottomoftheawningrail.Theawning

height can be adjusted lower if desired, but ensure that the

distance from the awning rail to the top of the support arm

assemblies is consistent at both ends of the awning.

1. Make sure the awning assembly is square on the unit

prior to mounting the bottom two screws.

NOTE: Four 3/16" x 0.450" aluminum rivets can be used

in place of the two middle and two lower screws when

installing support arms on laminated walls.

2. Remove the tape from the fabric.

3. Unroll a small portion of fabric.

NOTE: The following steps will require three people: One

to feed the polycord into the awning rail channel and two

to walk the support arm assemblies along the awning rail

while the fabric slides into position.

1. Slide the polycord into the awning rail channel and walk

the support arm assemblies and fabric down the awning

rail channel until the support arm assemblies are in line

with the centerline marks made previously.

2. Lift the support arm assembly up and secure by setting

the awning assembly to the desired height and attaching it

to the side of the unit with two #14 x 1 1/4" plain hex head

self-tapping screws at the top (Fig.5) and two #14 x 1 1/4"

plain hex head self-tapping screws at the bottom (Fig.6).

3. Insert the drive head assembly shaft into the end cap

(Fig.3). Align the holes and secure with the #8 waxed

screw. Repeat process for idler head assembly at

opposite end.

NOTE: Keep the head of the waxed screw approximately

1/8" away from being fully fastened to avoid compromising

the structural integrity of the waxed screw.

4. Useaatbladescrewdrivertospreadopeneither

end of the awning rail channel on the installation side

(Fig.4A).

5. To protect the fabric from damage during installation,

file any sharp edges or burrs from the awning rail

channel.

6. Apply silicone lubricant to the inside of the awning

rail channel (Fig.4B).

Securing the Fabric

1. Extend and retract the awning several times to ensure

that the fabric is square on the roll tube.

2. Secure the fabric in the awning rail no more than

1.00" inside the edge of the fabric on both ends using a

#6 x 1/2" hex head screw.

3. Install the screw down through the awning rail into the

fabric and the polycord (Fig.8).

3. Use the crank handle (Fig.10A) to extend the awning

(see “Operation” section of this manual). Install the

remaining two #14 x 1 1/4" plain hex head self-tapping

screws at any of the three locations shown (Fig.7) in the

center of the support arm. Repeat this process for the

opposite awning support arm assembly.

If the unit is equipped with a locking latch, be sure to

unlock the latch prior to extending the awning. After

retraction and before travel, be sure to lock the support

arms back into place.

Extending the Awning

1. Locate the awning crank handle for the awning (Fig.10A).

2. Insert the hook end of the crank handle into the eye bolt on

the drive head (Fig.11A).

3. Turn the crank handle so the eye bolt rotates in a clockwise

direction to fully extend the awning.

NOTE: Keeping the crank handle as parallel to the support

arm assembly as possible makes it easier to extend or retract

the awning.

Retracting the Awning

The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch

(see Adjusting Pitch).

1. Locate the crank handle for the awning (Fig.10A).

2. Insert the hook end of the crank handle into the eye bolt on

the drive head (Fig.11A).

3. Turn the crank handle so the eye bolt rotates in a

counterclockwise direction to fully retract the awning.

NOTE: Keeping the crank handle as parallel to the support

arm assembly as possible makes it easier to extend or retract

the awning.

Adjusting Pitch

NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling

of excess water and may dump a significant amount of

water without notice.

NOTE: Pitch can be set by adjusting the pitch arm to tip

one side of the awning to allow water runoff.

1. Extend the awning to the fully open position.

2. Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or

convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the joint

of the pitch arm until desired pitch is set (Fig.13A).

Belleville washers and bolt (Fig.13B) allow for the

joint to remain in the position set by the operator.

NOTE: Some awnings are equipped with a 2-position

pitch arm (Fig.14). The 2-position arm can be set in

the pitch position or snapped into a straight position by

pushing the release button (Fig.14A) and sliding the

sleeve (Fig.14B).

NOTE: Do not push the joint of the pitch arm up past

the point where the two sections are in a straight line.

This will put tension on the gas strut, which can cause

the strut to break.

NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting

the pitch.

NOTE: If the pitch arm does not hold position, it can be

tightened by adjusting the bolt (Fig.14C) in the center of

the joint.

Solera®Hybrid Awning Troubleshooting

What's Happening? What Should Be Done?

Awning won’t open or close. If optional travel locks are installed, ensure that they have

been unlocked.

Awningpitchwon’tstayintheatposition.

Check for bad gas strut.

Check pitch arm bolt for proper tension. (High winds can

causethepitcharmtodeviatefromtheatpositiondueto

the built-in safety feature of the awning.)

Make sure all 3 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.

Ensure 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.

Ensure the bolts that hold the head to the support arm

assemblies are tight.

Ensure the end caps are seated properly on the roll tube.

Ensure the shaft coming out of the head going to the end

cap isn’t bent.

Ensure the mount arms are properly secured to the wall.

Ensure no part of the support arm assemblies are bent.

Ensure the wear collar spacers are all properly located in

the support arm assemblies.

Awning Rolls Up Backward

The awning fabric should always be above the roll

tube. However, if the crank handle is operated past full

extension, the awning will roll up backwards. This is not a

defect. To correct the fabric orientation, simply operate the

crank handle in the retract direction and the awning will

then extend to its correct orientation and normal operation

can resume.

Maintenance

Fabric Care

If the awning is retracted while wet, extend the awning and

let it dry as soon as conditions allow before retracting. 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.

Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric as follows:

1. Make a mixture of 1/4 cup of dish soap to 5 gallons of

warm water.

2. Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the fabric.

3. Retract the awning for 5 minutes. This will apply the

mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well.

4. Extend the awning and hose off with fresh water.

Repeat if necessary.

5. Allow to dry before retracting awning.
