Well, we now know! We had a new awning installed on Prince Reindeer and were so awestruck at the installer's prowess that it never occurred to us to take some photos. However, we got a second chance when Buck decided to get a new awning for his fifth wheel....here's what it looked like:
First you have to get the old awning off..note the vise grips on the roller top left |
17 revolutions to release the spring inside the roller |
Voila! one loose awning!! |
Then you detach the bottom |
And slide the top seam out of its channel... |
...sliding, sliding....it's a BIG piece of fabric!! |
Before you know it it's time to slide the new awning in.... |
...and there she is.... |
The wrinkles will fall out in due course..... |
Tighten, tension and test.... |
Hey! It works....and looks great! Ron (the installer) told us he did eight of these yesterday!! |
