full length of the awning channel on your vehicle.
• Pre assemble each steel leg in order 1 to 5 according to the pre labelled components.
• Draw out the canopy away from the vehicle and insert a steel leg pole into the middle
eyelet. Slide a plastic cap over the top spike to hold the Canopy in place during windy
conditions. Peg the foot into the ground with 2 pegs. Loosely secure the middle leg with
a guy rope and peg.
