Keep bystanders away during installation. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Mount out of reach of children. The machinery in this awning can be danger-
ous to children.
Do not install while tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention during installation may result in serious personal
injury.
Dress properly during installation. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can cause an entangle-
ment hazard while working.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance reduces the risk of losing your balance and falling. Always
carefully follow all safety guidelines and operating procedures included with the

Mounting and electrical installation must be completed in full compliance
with all local, state, and federal regulations.
Mounting location must be a stable, properly constructed wall that is built
in compliance with all codes and is able to properly support the full stress
of the awning when open and even the added stresses that may be present
under rainy or windy conditions.
WARNING! The brass components of this product contain lead, a chemical
known to the State of California to cause birth defects (or other reproductive
harm). (California Health & Safety code § 25249.5, et seq.)
Risk of Electric Shock:
Water tight NEMA-approved switch enclosure must be used, and switch
a.
and enclosure must be installed by qualied electrician. Make sure that
Page 4SKU 95295 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
Page 5
the power cord is tted with a weatherproof seal to prevent water from getting
into the connection point. Do not use an extension cord when installing this
item.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
b.
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is grounded.
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil,
c.
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
OPERATION
1.

5.
6.
Do not operate in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of am-
mable liquids, gases, or dust. Electric motors create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
Disconnect power if the switch does not operate the awning. Any device
that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Do not use this Awning or components of this Awning for an unintended
purpose.
Disconnect from the power source before making any adjustments or per-
forming any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures. Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of accidental starting and electric shock.
Maintain with care. A properly maintained awning is safer and less likely to
break.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the awning. These carry important infor-
mation. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
Check for condition of weatherproof cord seal, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, deteriorated cover, and any other condi-
tion that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have serviced before
using. Accidents can be caused by a poorly maintained awning.
7.
8.
9.
Ensure that the awning cover does not accumulate water. The weight from
even a seemingly small amount of water may create enough force to cause the
awning to fail, resulting in injury or property damage.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one awning may become hazard-
ous when used on another.
Service must be performed only by qualied repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualied personnel could result in a risk of injury.

When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the “Inspection, Maintenance, and Cleaning” section of this manual. Use
of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a
risk of electric shock or injury.
11.
12.
13.
Do not allow awning to accumulate snow or other debris on top. Close
awning before snow. A heavy load on top may cause the cover to tear, cause the
mounting points to tear out of the wall, or cause the awning to collapse, causing
severe personal injury and/or property damage. Do not go under an awning with
accumulated debris on top.
Check and comply with all building codes that apply.
The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction
manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are fac-
tors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

to the Assembly Diagram near the end of this manual.
1.
2.
This item’s brackets can be bolted directly onto a solid concrete wall, using ap-
propriate lag bolts and washers (not included). Due to the leveraging forces
created, this item will require a Header board (not included) if installed onto any
non-concrete structure.
Install proper scaffolding (not included) to allow safe access to the installation
area. Utilize safety equipment as required for the height you are working at. To
prevent serious injury, follow all instructions and precautions provided with
the scaffolding you will use.
Risk of serious personal injury from electric shock or other
hazards from damaged utility lines.
Verify that installation surface has no hidden utility lines
before drilling or driving screws. The installation location
must have no obstructions to the awning being extended or
retracted.
Make sure that the electrical circuit that this item will be
connected to is disconnected before installation, adjustment,
or maintenance.

Header Installation
The header board must be 2” by 8” by 12’ and must be treated wood free from
defects. The header may also be painted before installation for aesthetic appeal.
Check to make sure that the mounting area is free from utility lines, especially
electrical conduits. Detect and mark all studs in the mounting area.
Using a level to ensure that the header is perfectly level, have assistants hold the
header while the pilot holes are drilled through the header and into each stud 2”,
a total of 4” deep. Secure the header with hardware appropriate for the wall that
you will secure the header to (hardware not included). The header should be
secured evenly to studs in at least 8 places.

Hold the brackets in place and mark the pilot hole locations for the two end
Brackets (10), as shown in the diagram above. The end Brackets need to be po-
sitioned 16” from the end of the header. Make sure that the pilot hole markings
are vertically straight.
Mark pilot holes for the center Brackets (10) 3’ (center to center) in from the
markings for the end Brackets (10). Once again, make sure that the pilot hole
markings are vertically straight.
Double-check all pilot hole markings to ensure that all markings are spaced prop-
erly and are straight vertically and horizontally from one another.
Drill pilot holes at all locations 1/4” in diameter and 2” deep.
Install the Brackets (10) to the header using 3/8” x 2” galvanized wood screws
(not included). Do not tighten the bolts until you level the brackets using a spirit
level (not included).

Mechanism Installation
Using assistance, lift the awning mechanism up onto the oor of the scaffold from
the ground. Get onto the scaffold.
Lift the awning mechanism up and slide the Rear Beam (11) into place in the
Brackets (10). If the Rear Beam (11) does not slide into place easily, then some
Brackets may be crooked; set the mechanism down and correct Bracket align-
ment before proceeding. Make sure that the awning mechanism is oriented
properly.
Support the mechanism while sliding bolts up through the Brackets and secure
them on top with a washer, lock washer, and nut each.
Electrical Connection
A certied electrician must install the switch inside a water tight NEMA-approved
outdoor switch enclosure (not included). Make sure that the power cord is tted
with a weatherproof seal to prevent water from getting into the connection point.
To prevent misuse resulting in injury, the switch enclosure must either be
locked or be mounted out of children’s reach.

Take note of which switch position is to retract and which position is to extend the
awning. Note the control positions next to the switch in the enclosure.
Angle Adjustment
To prevent damage to the awning and personal injury,
have one or two assistants help support the awning while
adjusting the angle.
The awning’s angle should be adjusted with the awning retracted.
Slightly loosen the three Angle Adjusting Bolts/Nuts (r,e) on one side of the aw-
ning. Adjust that side of the awning to the desired angle. Tighten the Angle
Adjusting bolts.
Slightly loosen the Angle Adjusting Bolts on the other side of the awning. Ob-
serve the Level (21) while you adjust the angle of the awning. Once the level is
even, then tighten the Angle Adjusting Bolts.
Extension/Retraction Distance Adjustment
The Awning extension and retraction cutoffs are factory set.
2.
On the Left Roller Shaft (5) there are two recessed hexagon controls. The upper
control adjusts the extension distance, and the lower control adjusts the retrac-
tion distance.

Push the switch to the extend position and hold it to extend the awning.
Release the switch to stop the awning in place.
Push and hold the switch to retract the awning.
The awning should automatically stop when fully extended and when fully retract-
ed. If not, the distance will need to be adjusted using the controls noted under

If the awning stops operating and will not respond to the switch, it is likely over-
heated. Allow the awning to cool for at least 15 minutes and then attempt to
operate it again.
The awning also includes a Manual Operation Handle (12) that can be hooked
onto the Manual Retractor (4) and turned to extend or retract the awning without
power.
