Anti-Flap Kit Installation Guide to suit Thule, Omnistor, Fiamma, and Dometic 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 the 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 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).
Step 2: Fitting the mounting bracket.
For a side-mount awning, fit the AFK mounting bracket inside the cassette housing. 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 3) on both the left and right sides of the cassette housing.
However, in some cases there will be tracks or other interferences, in which case, the closest fit (to 20mm)
obtainable should be used.
For a roof-mount awning, a plate on the left and right ends will need to be fixed inside the cassette housing
to provide a suitable surface to secure the AFK bracket. The aluminium plate will need to be 68mm high by
75mm wide and can be fixed to the inside of the cassette housing using the existing track at the top and
4mm screws at the bottom. The outer edge of the mounting bracket should be positioned in line with the
fabric edge. Generally, the best position to fix the mounting bracket is 20mm below the fabric. However, in
some cases there will be tracks or other interferences, in which case, the closest fit (to 20mm) obtainable
should be used. (Image 4 and Image 5).
