Step By Step Instructions
Find and unfurl the guy rope that is supplied with the awning
Thread the tail end of the rope through the hole in the extruded aluminum channel frame
Tie the end in a Trucker's Knot, (similar to the loop you create when tying your shoe)
Tighten the loop
Using a sledge or rock, pound the stake into the ground at an angle about 6 feet away from the awning pole
Secure the loop end around the hook of the stake and tighten the rope using the guy rope tensioner
