OWNER'S MANUAL

Rev: 02.15.19 Page 2 CCD-0001400

Introduction

The Solera® Manual Pull Strap Awning extends and retracts with the easy-to-use pull strap. This manual provides

operational procedures for Solera Manual Pull Strap Awning. 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.

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.

5. Do NOT tie down the roll tube, which would restrict proper support arm movement.

Tying the roll tube down once extended will not allow the free oating 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 to release pressure on the cam lock (Fig. 7A) and disengaging the cam

lock.

2. While holding the strap in hand, walk the awning toward the unit 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

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.

NOTE: Mildew does not form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.

Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼cup of dish soap and five gallons of warm

water.

1. Liberally slosh the mixture on the top of the fabric and roll up the awning for five minutes.

2. Apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well.

3. Roll the awning back out and hose off with fresh water.

4. Repeat if necessary.

5. Allow the fabric to dry before rolling up.

Pitch

Fig. 13 Fig. 14

Adjusting Pitch

1. Pitch can be set manually by adjusting the articulating arm to tip one side of the awning to allow water

runoff.

NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of excess water and may dump a significant amount of

water without notice.

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). 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 set position.

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.

NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.

Troubleshooting

What’s Happening? Why? What Should Be Done?

Awning won’t open. Locked

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.

Bad gas strut,

incorrect pitch

arm tension

Check for bad gas strut which will not allow awning to open all

the way. The fabric will just drop down.

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.

Obstructions,

fabric not

square

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.

Loose bolts,

end caps not

seated, bent

shaft, mount

arms not

secured or

bent, spacers

not properly

located

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.

Faulty cam

lock

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.
