Awning Squealing!

[navybanker]

Both awnings (not slide toppers) have started "squealing" when being retracted. Model has the main awning and an awning attached to the passenger side slide. Thus far do not squeal when extending. Movement of both is not interrupted or paused as it comes in. Anyone had this problem. Probably need to not use them until return from trip. Thanks,

On the older models, If the lock down screws are a little tight that can happen, or if they are just binding a little. I spray mine with silicon spray a couple of times a year.

Spray silicon on the metal chrome piston rod visible on both arms when extended.
