Awning Pulley Kampa

It's arrived, no more fighting with the missus each time we set up the awning!
She's gonna find this handy tool makes her job so much easier!

We have just received one of these too, but I suspect that it will be me who’s using it! :woohoo:

Been tempted to buy one of those myself, but i don't think our awning has an eyelet to attach the cord..
Incidentally i was wondering which end do folks thread their awning unto the caravan? I know it can be done from the front or the rear but i'm thinking from the front would be easier as there's usually less of an angle for the awning to negotiate.

Our Air Awning a 260 is a fairly light, and is easy to put up, I thread it up from the front.

Not if you have a new S4 Unicorn or a Pursuit as they both have a graceful curve at the rear top. It does however cause problems with awnings!

Its best with a Coachman.

I've always threaded my awning up from the rear up the vertical then along. I've never thought about doing it from the front but I might give that a try next time . Cheers .

I now use the rear entry. The new awning rail st front needs flaring out. A problem I’m still working on. May well wait for the Woosiefest and tap up Sproket.

There are videos on you tube of this pulley being used. Looks effective, but also hilarious :cheer: :lol: Let us know if it works.

Well i can confirm that threading the awning on from the front of the van made a huge difference for us.. way easier!
I reckon it wouldn't be a problem for one person to manage, now if i can just convince the wife to do it...
