Pegging
Close all doors and entrances. The rear corners will have already been pegged by this stage (Pegging Point A -
please refer to pegging point diagrams).
Pegging Point B: The front corners should now be pegged. Make sure that the awning is sitting squarely in relation to
your motorhome, if necessary adjust the pegging at the four corners (Points A & B) ensuring that the sides and front
are stretched tight.
Pegging Point C: The Skirt Pegging Points (blue triangles) should now be pegged. This point is attached to the skirt,
inside the awning, and regulates the position of the centre pole/s. Pulling this pegging point outwards will pull
the middle front leg/s backwards and into their correct position. THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. It is a common
mistake to have the centre leg/legs too far forward. Having legs too far forward is the most common cause of poor
performance in wind and rain; the awning will not look its best and the optional carpet may fit poorly.
Cross-peg all doorways and openings (see Diagram 11).
Cross-Pegging: All zipped openings should be cross-pegged. This creates tension in adjacent panels
and also reduces stress on zips. Points that should be cross-pegged are pre-stitched at an angle.
(see Diagram 11 for reference)
Peg all remaining pegging points. The pegging points have a range of possible pegging options. Select a point that
puts the awning under tension but without over stressing. Ensure the overall shape of the awning is sitting square to
the motorhome and that all panels are correctly tensioned.
Once satisfied check the AirPoles are inflated sufficiently (9 psi) and, if necessary, add more air. Once you are happy
with the pressure replace the inflation valve cap until it is tight to prevent leaking.
Guying
Quickpitch guying system: (see Diagram 12a/12b) Corner straps should be pegged at 45°degree from the corner
seams. Any straps along the front panel(s) should be pegged at 90° degrees in relation to the panel.
First, release the straps to their maximum length.
Peg the loop ensuring tension along the bottom webbing strap.
Tighten by pulling the straps through the buckles. Do not over-tension as this can distort the shape of the awning.
DO NOT allow children to play around your awning.
Guylines are a trip hazard.
Pegs
The awning comes complete with general purpose pegs. These will be suitable for many sites but there will be some
instances where different pegs will be necessary. Your dealer will stock a range of pegs suitable for different types
of ground. For maximum effectiveness, pegs should be driven into the ground at a 45° angle away from the pegging
point (see Diagram).
CAUTION: Pegs can be sharp. Do not allow children to play around the
awning and ensure that suitable protective footwear is worn.
Rear Tunnel
The roof of the rear tunnel of the awning should be as taut as possible in order to minimise any pooling of water. The
roof can adjusted using the tensioning straps attached to either side of the tunnel (see Diagram 13). The rear tunnel is
designed to universally fit vehicles and will fit some vehicles better than others.
Curtains
Fit the curtains (see Diagram 14). Check curtain size/shape against window size/shape before fitting.
Storm Tie-Down Kit (optional)
The QuickPitch straps/guy lines should be utilised at all times. However, for extra security an optional Storm Tie-Down
Kit is available (see Diagram 15a/15b). Ensure that the storm strap is pegged under tension but not so that it distorts
the shape of the awning. The tie-downs should always be used in pairs.
