Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's included in this combo kit?
A: The kit includes 1x Deluxe Awning Lift Handle (830644) and 1x Awning Rafter Rivet (830463P) — everything needed for common awning arm repairs on A&E 8500/9000 awnings.
Q: How do I install the rafter rivet?
A: Align the rivet through the awning arm pivot hole. Use a standard pop rivet tool to set it in place. The steel-aluminum construction is compatible with any standard rivet gun available at hardware stores.
Q: Why buy the combo vs separately?
A: The combo kit is priced lower than purchasing individually. Additionally, if you're servicing your awning arm, both parts often need replacement simultaneously — having them together saves a second order and shipping cost.
Q: Do I need the rafter rivet if only my handle is damaged?
A: The rafter rivet secures the awning arm pivot joint. If you notice the arm is loose, wobbles, or the existing rivet shows corrosion, it should be replaced along with the handle for a complete, lasting repair.
