ok last week i bought an apach torino awning of a guy on e bay, said it was brand new, ok so today i thought i  would just check it before our hols next week, and guess what....no instuctions...aarrggghhh.....anybody any idea where i can get these from....its a 915 if that matters.

big thank you....

We've had an awning without instructions and it is do-able.  Just lay out all the poles and within a few hours you start to get the idea of where it all goes, then you start putting it into practice and a few more hours later it's finally up lol.

Have you tried googling for it?  Otherwise i'm sure someone will be along soon with instructions or where to get some from...

a few hours....arrgghhh....want to be sat chillin after 20 mins of getting there....thanks anyway....hope someone comes along soon with some instructions or point me in the right direction

1. Connect and assemble the main hoop and lay this on the ground approximately in the awning footprint. Note that the pole stubs at the top face outwards - i.e. they're the receptacles for the "sun visor" rafters and not the main rafters. Connect in the centre leg.


2. Connect and assemble the "sun visor" hoop, laying this out near the "top" of the main hoop. Lay out the rafters and the remaining legs (2) so that they'll be close to hand.


3. Slide the awning into the awning rail and range it over the main hoop.


4. Three-quarters raise the main hoop. Fit the centre rafter for stability - but don't put any tension on it.


5. Ensuring that the holes face towards the rear, thread the "sun visor" hoop through the outer edge of the roof and fit all of the "sun visor" rafters.


6. Fully raise the main hoop. Fit the end rafters and lightly tension. Fit the remaining legs and rafters.


7. Zip in the front and side panels then fully tension the rafters.


8. Peg out the corners then the remaining pegging points.
