To Joy Service: 1. Any comment on weakness of plastic back where bracket attaches? 2. Will design be updated to fix that?

Question 1. do not consider the plastic back where the brackets attach as weak. The complete system is very robust. Question 2. If you think there is a problem with the design I suggest you direct that to the manufacturer.

Same thing happened to mine. I just ordered a different brand from B&H.; I had mine on a custom bracket and used it for a few months and the same happened.

Hi, Looks like we have a bit more work to do on our store. Those brackets are actually included in the price of the awning. You have the option of a tall or short bracket. We need to know which one you need. If you place an order with us, a simple note will do, to make sure we get the correct bracket for your application. Thank you!

The brackets on mine are metal, there is a plastic ring to protect your legs (I assume) from the hardware. They are right under the bracket, they serve no purpose other than safety though. It is very strong and steady. If it is plastic on yours I would call them, and complain. I wouldn't think plastic would last at all.

The bracket itself is very secure. Mine doesn't rattle against the frame at all. Nor does the lock rattle in the bracket. The lock, however, does rattle. It's just the nature of the metal on metal locking mechanism.

if you go on line you can u tube this repair , you can also look up service manuals by make and model. Just make sure that the lower bracket is not bent and cable rubbing on belt - this was my problem and had to replace /repair bracket - need belt and cable - keep all bolts in separate containers and mark them on location

The pole snaps into the plastic end of the bracket. I ordered these from amazon and the plastic ends were broken. They reshipped them and the the ends where again broken. I ended up purchasing them at Home Depot.

Hey Guys, I just received a 2nd, 3-tiered unit. Low and behold, again with the same 2x3" support bracket that Michael Vitale commented on on May 23. As I don't see any replies that appear to be from manufacturer's reps, I'm going to do a bit more research. If no further response from me, you can figure that I sent it back. Bummer.

There should be 2 metal bracket for it, but there wasn't in my order either. I had to solve that issue on my own! Hardware store worked, but i still think it should already come with attachments!

Hi, there are 2 brackets that you have to attach on the back but very simple to do.

Hey Roy, I'm not sure if there would be any brackets out there for that series now. It might have to be a custom job or something you'd have to retrofit with a newer bracket.

Since I replaced the bottom bracket with a sealed cartridge, I've had a similar problem. The looseness is on the right side at the bolt closest to the bottom bracket. Although the problems is with the bolt on the right side, that makes the pedal on the left feel loose.But I recently replaced the wedge pins and it seems better now. I may have had the pin facing the wrong direction. If you put in all the pins facing the front, half of them will be backwards!

I haven't taken it apart. I don't know what kind of bracket it would replace or why you wouldn't just use this whole new unit.

NO. The holes for the metal support brackets are pre-drilled. Mine were already in place. However, as far as I can tell, it would be fairly easy to remove the 4 brackets, drill new holes in the desired location and reinstall. The back 2 brackets are recessed flush with the wood surface but I don't see that being a huge problem. A DIY'er or someone who likes to tinker with wood could make it work. GOOD LUCK.

It's a fixed bracket. It's not bendable. Check out the specs at the yoshimura website. Hope this helps.

Teisha is right about the brackets. However, instead of using the brackets as intended, just use the main half of the bracket and screw it to the wall instead of the other half of the bracket. That would be simple.
