Usage and Maintenance Manual Brochure

Designed as a sun-screen product, the fabric is designed to be taut at every stage of the movement of the front bar - whether the awning is fully extended, or stopped somewhere between fully closed and fully extended.

The Giotto as a single awning has a maximum width of 5m wide x 4m projection, 4.5m wide x 4.5m wide projection, or 4m wide x 5m projection.  If wider spans are to be covered, Giotto also comes in a Twin Version (connected by a common centre track) - two screens each with its own motor, to achieve the optimum level of shading as each screen is operated independently.

The GIOTTO PLUS Fabric Tension System awning is fitted with powder-coated aluminium front legs, making this system versatile for private or public installations. It can be affixed to an existing wall, roof eave, or garage wall etc.  The GIOTTO PLUS as a single awning has a maximum width of 5m wide x 4m projection, 4.5m wide x 4.5m wide projection, or 4m wide x 5m projection, or a Twin Version (connected by a common centre track) is available for wider applications up to 10m.
