  Has anyone got some instructions for a Bradcot Classic Awning?  I've seen it assembled once, but would like to refresh my memory if poss. It's got the 'easy'  aluminium poles

If it is the easi pole system you should not need instructions as it is so simple. so long as you have all of the parts and the locking mechanisms are working it is a case of threading the awning onto the rail and erecting the three pole units with the legs not fully extended. Once poles are in place extend legs and peg out awning fabric. and install any additional rafer poles or veranda poles. The good thing about the easi pole system is that it is a one person task and therefore reduces the chance of divorce or murder.

  Let's hope so anyway  

   Here's another newbie question. On this awning all the 'ladder straps' are seperate in the bag, On my previous, they were all left on the awning, which is best and why??  Also do you peg the strap down and stretch it to the awning, or vice verce??

I take the ladders of mine as I take it down as I find they fall off when I'm folding it up. When erecting the awning I put them back on as I am pegging out. Ladder on, peg through ladder and hammer in peg to pull the ladder tight. It's easier if you do the corners first to ensure you get the shape correct and you don't pull the bottom away from the caravan.
