Re Tension Dometic Awning

I am making a new fabric panel to replace the 2002 tablecloth fabric that disintegrated.

Re tension dometic awning.

Step 1 prepare to re insert the cotter pin. Once you ve reassembled both arms check the awning tension. Slip the end of the support arm back into the tension arm and tighten the screws. Roll the awning back up to observe how tight it is.

I got the first panel done and assumed that all i had to do was wind the entire tube 8 turns etc. When you release the tension in the spring the cotter pin that is inserted in the holes in the awning arms are removed. 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.

If it s suitable you re finished. 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. 2 the support arm consists of an outer and inner section.

The dometic door awning is totally enclosed in an all metal case. Reattach the rear awning leg and lower both leg sections completely. We should test the tension before doing anything else.

You can leave the support arms hanging freely but it might help to simply slide the stops back into the leg channel. The tension arms are what you adjust to make the awning taut after it has been lowered. For more information call 5.
