Another tip for addressing a particular problem was gleaned from Fiamma by our Sponsor CeeWoo. See http://www.trailmanorowners.com/foru...ad.php?p=98477

I've now had more experience with my awning than anyone should ever have. It was nearly an inch from closing in the end above the door, and then the other end would stick when opening it. Anyhow, I wrote Fiamma and got some help from them in adjusting the awning to better close. With that, I got it within maybe 1/4" or so of closing.

I wrote to them one last time saying it's close but not quite there. Their tip was that if it's close, about 6" of tape stuck just in front of the 'roller' would increase the diameter of that end and it would take up more fabric. So, I stuck 6" of duct tape to the underside of the awning, rolled up the awning and Lordy Sakes alive - a perfect close!
