How to fit wanderer awning.

The best method is to have a roof bar at the rear of the vehicle. I posted this because i couldn t find another one online. Installing my new awning onto my d40 nissan navara. Hope it helps those in the same boat.

Don t lock the pads in place until the roof poles are correctly positioned. The roof poles fit into bracket pads that either slide or clip into position on the awning bead. The number of poles is dictated by the awning s size. Fit the front centre vertical pole through the roof canvas and leave it at an angle to support the roof.

Lift the awning to the roof rack and ensure that the brackets are as far towards the ends of the awning as possible. With the awning laid on its front slide the 20 millimetre bolts into the channel along the back of the awning. Now raise the awning to the brackets and align the bolts with the brackets sliding them through the holes. Aluminium mounting rails which should be supplied with your awning clamp to the bar with sandwich clamps and you can then bolt the awning to those.

Unroll your awning all of the way with the vertical poles clear you can unroll your awning fabric all of the way and extend out one vertical leg at a time twisting them to lock their internal locking mechanism to secure them into place making sure one side is slightly lower to allow water run off. Undo the zipper on the protective bag and whilst holding the awning in place release the captive buckles. Insert the horizontal poles and velcro up.
