rpasetto Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 The Girard patio awning just 'tips the corner of the door when it retracts with door fully open. I followed instructions from the manual (Screen shot below) but no change. I loosened both 3/4" nut& bolt as shown, then tightened the 3/8" adjustment bolt at least two turns but there was no difference. Then I tried to lower the rear to give more front to back pitch. Loosened both the 3/4" then backed off on the 3/8" adjustment bolt. After about a half turn the bolt could be turned by fingers. Looks like something is stuck. Sprayed a little oil in both front and rear assemblies and tried a few minutes later... same thing. Am I missing something? Has anyone raised (or lowered) their Girard adjustments?

rpasetto Posted May 23, 2021 Author Share Posted May 23, 2021 OOPS! Wrong bolt. The 3/8" bolt adjustment is for the awning fitting into the shroud. It's the 3/4" bolt which adjusts the pitch angle from the 20 degree default. 🙂 ... from pg. 15... ... diagram on pg. 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
