Hi Folks,
we have a used ( but like new) Bradcot active awning which we bought second hand from a caravan place. Its a 950 + size and comes with the easy aluminium ( 3 main pole) system.
I have driven myself insane trying to locate some assembly instructions to no avail. Can anyone lead me in the right direction with this please. Would be much appreciated before next Fridays " maiden voyage" ( and to save a few arguments and tempers :-)
Cheers once again

Have you actually tried contacting Bradcot customer services for help in obtaining assembly instructions for the Active model?

I did look on bradcots web pages but wasn't sure really if there was an easier explanation. I shall print out the instructions they offer and see what we achieve. It can't be that hard surely!!!!!!!!!
Cheers folks

I bought a Bradcot Sport awning in 2005 and found that it was quite straight forward to erect even though it came with instructions. The most difficult part were the corners but then I realised that one had the letter 'L' and the other the letter 'R' which at first was confusing as I placed them as 'Left' and 'Right' when standing inside the awning but they actually go the opposite way round so the left and right fit as you are looking at the awning from the outside as shown in the advert pictures. Once I sussed that out it was a piece of cake and so easy in comparison to other awnings that I have helped to erect.
