General information Maximum and minimum width Width Projection 150 to 349 cm 350 to 500 cm From 200 to 250 cm X From 251 to 600 cm X X Maximum fabric surface 30 m² per awning section (acrylic fabric, Tibelly). To confection the fabric, a wide side hem of 10 cm should be used at both fabric sides. The front profile will start to bend at a free span of 4 m or more. This has no effect on the functionality of the system. You can opt for an arched front profile or a coupled system with two shorter front profiles. Fabric winding method: Bottomwise.

General information Motor diagram For a single unit use 40 Nm. For a double unit (2 linked units) use 80 Nm. Notes Place an extra support beam to support the fabric upward a projection of 3.50 m. When using the Piazzola, in case of rain (short light rainfall) we always recommend (a) support beam(s) supporting the fabric and apply a lock set. The Piazzola should then be placed at a minimum angle of 17 degrees. For a better drainage one can choose to place rings in the fabric.

1. Cut the length material into the correct size (see table cut sizes). 2. On the operating side, drill a hole of 11 mm in the bottom cover for lead-through of the motor cable. Fit a tulle in this hole. 12. Place the motor into the control side of the steel tube, and insert the bearing plug on the bearing side. Cord length per side: 2x the projection plus 1.5 times the width plus 1 m. 3. Around the centre point of the length, drill a hole of 6.5 mm along the drill line in the groove of the bottom cover for placement of the top cover support. Note: No wall bracket can be placed here. 4. Slide the mounting plate with sockethead screws in the same groove. Turn 1 socket-head screw through the hole of 6.5 mm. Tighten the other socket-head screws. 13. Make 4 windings of cord on the cord pulley and ensure that the cord runs neatly. TIP: Apply double sided tape in the cord pulley before winding the cord. The first 4 windings will then be fixed in place and will remain so during transport. 14. Assemble the top cover supports (bearing side and control side) as shown on the figure. 5. Slide the wall brackets into the bottom cover. Place the outside brackets at 10 mm from the outside of the bottom cover. 6. A third bracket is required if the width > approx. 4.50 m. It should be placed more or less in the middle. 7. Using screws, fasten all wall brackets to the bottom and backside. 8. Pull the plastic insert strip into the bottom cover. 15. Use screws to fasten both top cover supports to the bottom cover. 16. Place the cord pulleys opposite the wheels on the top cover supports and fix these into place. 9. Slide the two PVC inserts into the fabric. 10. Wind up the fabric on the fabric roller. 11. Fit the cord pulleys. 4 Piazzola Pergola Awning Version 1.01
17. Hook the cover support into the bottom cover and place it alongside the socket-head screw that is projecting through the cover. 28. Drill 6.5 mm holes in the left and right side guide for fastening to the top cover supports. 6,5 18. Hook the top cover into the bottom cover and use screws to fasten it to the ends of the top cover supports. 19. Attach the cord tensioners at 50 cm from the centre on the sloping side of the lower front profile. Note: Cord tensioners come in left and right versions. 20. Slide the central pulley into the opening in the lower front profile. 21. Slide the front profile onto the fabric. 22. Fasten the guide blocks onto the lower front profile using screws. 12 29. Slide the mounting plate of the fabric support into the side guide, place it in the required position, and use it to fasten the support. 30. Slide the mounting plate of the top hinge into the side guide. Fasten the top hinge at the required position of the side guide. Leave space for the nut on the outside. 31. Insert the guide plate into the top of the side guide and slide into place. Use a rubber hammer to tap firm. Note: If the lock set is used, it can be mounted now (see number 66). 40 23. The support consists of two posts with hinge and footplate connected to a support beam. 24. Drill two holes into the post as shown in the figure (page 3 angle connection). 25. Use a machine screwing tap M8 to tap a thread in the post and support beam. Provide sufficient lubrication. Minimum tap 25 mm. 26. Screw the socket-head bolt M8x50 on both sides of the support beam. Let it oversize for ±15 mm. Insert the socket-head bolts through the holes in the post and tighten them. 27. Screw the bottom hinge at the top of the post and the baseplate at the bottom. 32. Take the water gutter sections and drill holes of 5 mm at intervals of ± 60 cm along the drill line. 33. Screw a cover plate against the front of the water gutter. 34. Hook the water gutter sections into the side guide, keeping the cover plate on the front even with the front of the side guide, and screw into place. #25 #27 35. Fasten the mounting plate to the wall at a distance that is equal to the length of the awning, measured on the outside (when using a wall cover, deduct the thickness of the endplate of the wall cover = 6 mm).

36. Hook the wall brackets into the mounting plate and fasten the socketplate screws on the bottom side. 43. Tighten the nuts on the side of the wall bracket. 37. Pull out the front profile by 30 cm. 38. Feed the cord along the wheels of the guide blocks into the front profile. 39. Slide the side guide over the wheels of the guide blocks and over the leg of the top cover support. 44. Hook the springs on the left and right into the screw eyes of the guide blocks. 45. Place the pulley on the other side of the spring. 46. Slide the central pulley towards the centre of the bottom front profile. 47. Lead the cord through the side guide and lay it over the top of the wheels in the end bearing. Ensure that the cord is not crossed in the side guide. 48. Lead the cord as shown in the figure below. Pull out each spring to a maximum of 60% of its own length. 40. Attach the side guide to the legs of the top cover supports. 41. Place the two hinges at the desired positions above one another, and connect these. 42. Measure the Piazzola diagonally and ensure that the system is perfectly perpendicular. When using concrete pads, place the posts at exactly the same height. When using the baseplate, fasten it to the ground. 49. Tension the springs lightly. 50. Check that the cord runs well over all the wheels of the pulleys. 51. Further tension the springs by pulling the cord in the cord tensioners. 52. Allow the fabric to run out to its full length. 53. Determine at which point of the side guide the springs are least tensioned. This is the point where the awning will sag. 54. Then mark the position of the front profile in relation to the side guide. 55. Stop the front profile at the marked point while drawing in. 56. Tension the springs in such a way that the fabric is (sufficiently) tight. For this, pull the cord in the cord tensioners. 57. Let the awning run in and out a couple of times to check correct functioning 58. Straighten the top cover by turning the sockethead screw at the back of the bottom cover. 59. Attach the wall cover and wall cover end plates to one another. 60. Pull the plastic insert strip into the gulley of the wall cover and fasten the end plates using screws. 61. Place the wall cover on the top cover and position the end plates even against the wall. 6 Piazzola Pergola Awning Version 1.01
62. Determine the position of the holes and drill these in the wall cover and wall. 63. Attach the wall cover to the wall and the end plates to the mounting plate (bottom slot end plate). 64. Hook the cover extension into the top cover. 65. Drill holes in the cover extension and the side guides. 66. Attach them to one another using screws. 67. The lock set can only be used with an ASA ETR-A or a Somfy Orea motor. Place the lock set at least 110 mm from the end of the side guide. At this place no top hinge can be mounted. The plastic stopper has to be screwed on the front profile, as shown at the drawing. Note: At this place no top hinge can be mounted. 10 110 Version 1.01 Piazzola Pergola Awning 7
