Dave, I went to "ask.com" and entered "How to set tension on RV awnings." and got a ton of sites to instruct you.

I'm thinking you can start by removing the short arm on the awning. The one used to prevent the awning from unwinding as you travel down the road. You may be able to get one turn on the awning that way.

I don't remember the slide awnings as having as much tension as the main awning. The main awning has a hole that you can slide a long cotter pin through to hold it in place while you repair the awning or thread new fabric. Possibly the slide awnings have a pin hole as well.
