Can anyone offer any quick tips for the assembly of the awning on our Pennine Fiesta ??? We've owned the camper a couple of months now but havn't had the opportunity to use it due to works commitments,we're loooking forward to our first weekend away this week.

Hi Veds,

we had a similar problem but braved it out and tried it on our first camping trip. I'd seen some posts on this website suggesting attaching the awning before putting up the roof but we tried this and it didn't work out too well, the weight of the awning pulled the roof off centre and we couldn't get it back down again without a lot of hassle. Like Foutones says, be prepared for some wayward poles. If there's two of you to handle the poles then it's a lot easier. We're off again in a couple of weeks so we're going to try putting the poles up first this time. Let you know how we go on.
