I havny got the intructions, I worked it out for my self.

Feed awning arount caravan. Insert/fit awning clips to caravan, there should be three of them, one either side and one on the top. then find a pole with three joint at the end and a adjustable pole with a hook on the end and fix to the middle top of the awning and the caravan. Then a adjust pole with a foot on it and a short pole and the middle pole and the ground.

same again to either end of the awning and then the pole to join the ends and middle together.

its really easy, i do mine one my own. just play around  with it.

A good tip for erecting an unfamiliar awning without instructions is to just lay out the poles alone and work out what goes where on the ground . Lay out the roof poles first then the legs . When you have got it right , used coloured electricians tape to colour code the poles in the various groups . i.e. Left leg/left roof green . Right leg/roof yellow . Centre leg/roof blue . If you have a large one , code your other leg/s with another colour . Some very large awnings have extra support poles across the front too . There are so many colours of electricians tape available at discount stores/pound stores all sizes of awning can be coded this way . Most people put the roof section in the awning rail first followed by erecting the poles , centre then sides , to give a firm structure . Side curtains next , then fronts . Peg out bottom of awning for good fit and allow smooth operation of the zips . Final tightening of poles to just make the structure rigid without strain on the awning rail then you can put your guy ropes and if windy , your storm straps on .

Ours is a Tuscany too. I think you will find that the short poles fit the roof bars.Putting them in the front side uprights results in a front which is too high and saggy sides which will not tension sufficiently

No I think you'll find one of the short bars goes in the centre to floor bars to lift it higher than the rest to give the roof fall for the water to flow off. I think the second bar is a spare, or at least it is with ours.

Wizard9956,

Have you still got a copy of the instructions for the Pyramid Tuscany awning?

Yes we have seen the video but it doesnt show the poles that clearly.

Thank you in anticipation.

Maurice
