Yes, the set screws release the motor, but the wires from the motor, even when retracted and tucked in, impede the rotation of the spool enough to prevent it from rotating. Should I just get some additional manpower and force it?? Should the motor be unable to rotate when not powered?? Seems it would have to to hold the awning open. But what to do with the wires??
You are still confused. The SHAFT of rh hand torsion will free wheel once the 2 screws are removed. The wires have nothing to do with it. Besides, you will need a new motor and the new motor comes with the short wire pigtail. Doug
