As the awning is retracting and after the strap begins to wind around the roller, I just move the strap to the side so that it winds further up in to the awning. After a little practice, you'll know how much so that only the tip of the loop is visible and won't bang on the rv.

Yes what Fred said..... except when the strap slips off the end of the rod and your awning closes itself, then the strap disappears completely, problem solved ;):B:S

I used Velcro and attached to the MH with Gorilla Glue worked well
