Re Tension Dometic Awning

I got the first panel done and assumed that all i had to do was wind the entire tube 8 turns etc.

Re tension dometic awning.

You can leave the support arms hanging freely but it might help to simply slide the stops back into the leg channel. Dometic door awnings are available in white black champagne and silver as well as in manual and electric versions. I am making a new fabric panel to replace the 2002 tablecloth fabric that disintegrated. Reattach the rear awning leg and lower both leg sections completely.

If it s suitable you re finished. We should test the tension before doing anything else. 2 the support arm consists of an outer and inner section. Step 1 prepare to re insert the cotter pin.

The tension arms are what you adjust to make the awning taut after it has been lowered. The dometic door awning is totally enclosed in an all metal case. Once you ve reassembled both arms check the awning tension. Loosen the tension knob you tightened at the beginning of the process.

Its wide canopy provides cover for the door and side window to protect both your entryway and you while you re looking for your keys. The cotter pins are the ones that lock the spring tension securely while taking down the rv awning. For more information call 5.

1 lower the awning so the roller tube is as close to the ground as possible. Remove the 2 phillips head screws from the bottom end of the outer section. You do not need to put the screws back in.
