Learn how to properly identify your RV awnings in this training from Lippert. Correct awning identification is an important first step when ordering replacement parts, troubleshooting issues, or performing maintenance on your RV.
In this video, we explain how to determine which awning model you have by locating the variant label and identifying key features found on different awning styles. Variant labels are used to catalog Lippert products and often include helpful details such as fabric color, awning length, and model type. These labels can typically be found on the roll tube or the mounting arm, making them the best place to start when identifying your awning.
You’ll also learn about common awning components and how they can help narrow down the model you’re working with. We cover features such as pitch arms, mounting arms, and struts, and explain how these parts function across various awning designs.
The video also walks through the identifying characteristics of several manual and power awning models, including:
- Manual pull-strap awnings like the 1000 XL Series
- The 1000 Series manual awning
- The 1500 Series hybrid crank awning
- Window awnings with pull straps
- Power awnings, including the 5000, 4000 (18V), 3500 Smart Arm, and 3000 Series
- Edge Series awnings in the 1800 and 2000 models
- The 7000 Series batwing (270°) awning
By understanding these visual cues and locating the correct labels, you can quickly identify your RV awnings and ensure you’re working with the right components.
Watch the full video for a step-by-step guide to recognizing the key features that make each awning model unique.
