FIAMMA awning

[SomersetExile]

Hi. My FIAMMA awning winds out about 10 inches and then stops. I’m very reluctant to force it any further so I was wondering if anyone has any advice on what to do?

Without seeing it, we would struggle to help.

Get the stepladder out and have a closer look, maybe gently push/pull on it to see if anything is obvious, take a picture or two and post it here.

I will do that when I get home. On holidays until 2nd week in May.
Thanks for the reply.

Does the handle stop turning or the awning stop going out but the handle still turns?

If the latter, I get that and have got to pull the metal parts out a bit to get it going.

Yes the handle keeps turning. I’ll give it a bit of a tug and see what happens.
Thanks for replying
