A Carefree awning is a great way to add shade and protection to your RV, camper, or patio. It can also help to keep you cool and comfortable in hot weather. But how do you pitch your Carefree awning in less than 5 minutes?
Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Prepare your awning. Make sure that your awning is clean and free of debris. Check the fabric for any tears or holes. If you have a manual awning, make sure that the crank is in good working order.
- Find a level spot. The ground should be level and free of rocks or other obstructions. If the ground is not level, you can use blocks or bricks to level the awning.
- Pitch the awning. There is a pitch adjustment mechanism on each awning arm. Use this mechanism to adjust the pitch of the awning. The desired pitch will vary depending on the weather conditions.
- Inspect the awning, extend it. Make sure it is pitched to your liking
- Enjoy your awning! Once your awning is pitched, you can enjoy the shade and protection it provides.
Here are some additional tips for pitching your Carefree awning in less than 5 minutes:
- Make sure that you have all of the necessary tools and equipment. This includes a crank (if you have a manual awning), a level, and blocks or bricks (if the ground is not level).
- Practice pitching your awning at home before you go camping or tailgating. This will help you to get the hang of it and make it easier to do in a short amount of time.
- If you are pitching your awning in windy conditions, be sure to secure it properly. You may you may want to wait for a better weather condition day.
With a little practice, you can easily pitch your Carefree awning in less than 5 minutes. So get out there and enjoy the shade! Usually once you pitch your awning you won’t need to do this again.
Here are some additional things to keep in mind when pitching your Carefree awning:
- The angle of the awning should be adjusted to allow water to run off easily.
- The awning should be pitched higher in windy conditions and lower in hot, sunny conditions.
- The awning should be retracted if there is a chance of heavy rain or snow.
- The awning should be cleaned and stored properly when not in use.
It is important to put your awning in if there is heavy rain or wind in the forecast.
The awning can be damaged by the wind and rain, and it could also pose a safety hazard. If you are leaving your camper for any amount of time, it is also a good idea to put the awning in. You never know what the weather will bring, and it is better to be safe than sorry.
By following these tips, you can ensure that your Carefree awning will provide you with years of enjoyment.
