Awning adjustment or set screw

[Jims94vmx]

On my 2018 337 my slide awning is rolling off kilter. The front awning has a set screw and I did that.

I can not find a set screw in the other awning. I even looked on the ends of the roller.....

Thanks.

The screw likely backed out and is long gone. It should be easily replaced, take the set screw you have and go match it up.
Check the position on the rail as well.

Are we talking about the screws on the rail that mounts to the RV and holds the lateral movement of the fabric? Or is there some other set screw? thanks.

Talking about the awning fabric sliding in on the track. I need to adjust fabric.

The front awning had a screw through the bracket into the core or rope if you will.

Can not find a way to slide fabric for adjustment. as it rolls up the fabric pulls the arms so they don't go straight into the brackets that are vertical. hope this makes sense

Your awning has slipped on the trailer side.

Got it. Thanks. I looked at a YouTube video about it. It seems to me the screws on both sides need to be removed, fabric adjusted and screws put back in.

I can not find any screws holding the fabric.....Hence the question.
I have crawled above and below the rail and do not see any.

I’ve seen awning rails with screws into the rail itself at each end rather than in the fabric. Usually there is something along the rail so the awning can’t move forward or backwards along the rail attached to the RV sidewall.

Curious if you found a solution. My 2018 303 just started this same issue. When I opened the awning up to remove the set screws, there were none. Fabric won't budge. Now I'm unsure how to proceed.

I’ve seen it where there isn’t a screw holding the fabric but the channel it slides into has been pinched slightly with a pair of pliers so the fabric can’t move.

I have not. My next step will be pulling down the led strip to see.....don't know how it got out of whack. Keep us informed if you find secret. I am full time and moving a lot till July. Will try then.
I even tried using a strong magnet to find screw.

I don't recall seeing any pinch but I'll take a look later this week. Maybe spraying the channel with some type of lubricant and letting it sit for a day or two and trying again.

I've run into the same problem finding screws on our 2018 337 awning. Did you find a solution for your adjustment?

 

[Jims94vmx]

No, will take down awning led strip when I am in 1 place for a few months starting in July. Hope it is hidden there....
