HI,

I am a complete Caravan Novice....

having bought a 2nd van with TRIO sombrero awning I can't seem to figure out the poles !

 

Does anyone have one they can point me in the right direction?

Does anyone have instructions or a diagram?

I would be so grateful of any help

Gary

thanks Pam,

you have been most helpful .

only problem is I can't seem to open the attachments !!!

 

i managed to open one which is a diagram of a bigger awning, and a photo brouchre shot, however the other ones I could not open !

The main problem I am having is with the centre cross, it only has 4 spurs - I presume 1 to the ground, 1 left , 1 right and 1 to the van. The problem is that there i not one for the wee flap part that sticks out. There is a screw hole on top though ????

Any ideas?

Thanks for all your help, turns out the ball joiint is missing from the centre pole.

My van doesnt have any anchor points for the poles to hook  into, is it just a case of screwing them into the side of the van?
