Need Awning Advice
I am reinstalling our awning fabric and can't seem to get the tension to work. Have the arms out and turned the cams on each side 6 times as required. Bolted them in and the awning just sits there. I rolled it up by hand with the lever on roll up, it clicked all the way up but when I moved the lever to unroll it just let the spring loose and rolled out all at once.
Could the springs be broken? It has been sitting almost a year in the garage. I didn't think the tension had to be set with the arms all the way vertical because I read about people setting the tension while winding the entire leg attached to the cam. I'm sure I'm winding it in the direction indicated on the cap ends.
What am I doing wrong?
