MAINTENANCE
The DEFENSE awning system is made of the best materials,
resistant to wear and capable of maintaining its technical
features unchanged in any weather conditions, provided the
conditions given under "scheduled maintenance" are complied
with.
During the winter period, the sail should be protected with an
awning cover or stored in a dry place.
WASHING SAILS
This operation should be carried out towards the end of the
day.
- Open the sails.
- Wet the top of the sails using a hose.
- Dilute about half a litre of washing machine liquid detergent
in 10 litres of water.
- Spread the diluted detergent over the top of the sails.
- Close the sails and leave the canvas to soak overnight.
- Open the sails again and rinse with plenty of running water.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The frequency with which the awning is maintained and
cleaned varies according to the installation conditions.
Exposure to sea air or strong chemical pollution (acid rain) may
cause the components (pillars, wind-up device shaft, sails) to
wear more quickly.
Carry out the following operations when necessary:
BRIEF PERIODS OF NON-USE
- Clean the steel using the special product provided
- Check the ropes are intact and properly connected, and that
all moving components slide correctly
- Wash and rinse the sails.
LONG PERIODS OF NON-USE
- Clean the steel using the special product provided.
- Check the ropes are intact and properly connected, and
that all moving components slide correctly.
- Wash and rinse the sails.
- Wrap the sail in the special cover provided.
WARNING
Using original spare parts ensures the awning will provide
maximum efficiency and performance.
VELOMBRA Srl declines any liability for harm to persons and/
or damage to things resulting from the use of components
different from those made available to the client.
In the event non-original components are used, the warranty is
annulled, even if still valid.
