ANTI-FLAP KIT INSTALLATION GUIDE THULE 8000

Anti-Flap Kit Installation Guide to suit Thule 8000 cassette awnings. The Aussie Traveller Anti-

Flap Kit is suitable to be installed on many different brands of cassette awnings. Due to the

design of this cassette, regular Anti-Flap Kits (AFK’s) will not fit. The following adjustments to

a regular AFK make it possible to fit to these awnings simply and easily.

Step 1: Fitting the 100mm extension arm and hook end.

Remove the original hook-end from the regular AFK and fit an extension arm in its place, making sure

that the extension arm extends 100mmm from the end of the AFK. (Image 1 and Image 2).

then screw or pop rivet together (Image 4). (Add an extra hole to ensure security).

The outer edge of the mounting bracket should be in line with the fabric edge. Generally, the best position to fix the mounting bracket is 20mm below the fabric (Image 8) on both the left and right sides of the cassette housing.
