270 Degree Awning Tie Down Kit with Straps
WHY YOU NEED THIS KIT
Protect Your Investment: 270º awnings are expensive. Wind damage from inadequate tie-downs can destroy your awning in minutes.
Peace of Mind: Sleep soundly knowing your awning is properly secured, even in unexpected weather changes.
Versatile Performance: Works in challenging conditions where standard tent pegs fail:
- Extreme hard packed terrain.
- Soft, muddy ground - Big Dog Screw in Peg™ upgrade recommended.
- Beach sand – Sand Dog Screw in Peg® upgrade recommended.
- No need to use the 4x4 Anchor Plate at the beach.
Why the strange, shaped peg hole?
It’s to allow a Big Dog Screw in Peg™ to be used if you encounter very soft conditions!
OPERATING TIPS
Weather Considerations:
- Your Awning is a big investment, don’t believe anyone that tells you that you don’t have to anchor it.
- Strong winds expected: Your Awning is just like a big sail just waiting for the wind to get under it. Be ready to retract your Awning to avoid damager
Ground Conditions:
- Hard rocky ground: use Tuff Dog Screw in Pegs™
- Soft/muddy ground: Upgrade to Big Dog Screw in Pegs™ recommended
- Beach sand: Upgrade to Sand Dog Screw in Pegs® recommended
IMPORTANT: Tuff Dog Screw in Pegs™ have LEFT-HAND THREAD - turn COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to install!
This design creates a flush, low-profile setup that minimizes trip hazards while maximizing stability.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Peg won't go in: Check you're turning counterclockwise. Ensure adequate downward pressure. Try alternate location if ground is too hard.
Strap too tight/loose: Adjust tension gradually. Remember awning needs some flexibility in wind.
Peg pulling out: Ground conditions are too soft for Tuff Dog Screw in Pegs™ - use Big Dog Screw in Pegs™.
Awning stress: Reduce strap tension, safety springs should not be distorted.
Remember: Proper installation and appropriate use will ensure years of reliable awning security and peace of mind on your adventures.
