Crank-Operated FlexShades—Endcaps

  Mark wall, jamb or ceiling for placement of mounting endcaps.

Caution: Before mounting shades, verify measurements on the card 

provided with the shade, and ensure the brackets are installed at the 
correct width.

  Drill small starter hole (if necessary) in mounting surface.

  Mount endcaps using appropriate fasteners for surface (see Fig. 1 for

  endcap dimensions). If this is a coupled unit, be sure to mount coupled
  endcap in the center position. 

The installer is responsible for selecting 

  mounting hardware appropriate for site conditions.

Caution

➀ 

Inspect all boxes to make sure you have received proper shades/parts.

  Open cartons lengthwise.

  All endcaps, fascia, headboxes, pockets, wall clips, and other hardware

  must be installed level. Shades must be level and square.

 

There is no lower limit. Overcranking the shade past sill may cause 

  product to fall or otherwise fail, and invalidates warranty.

Please Note: 

If shade fabric is uneven, see “Field Adjustments” below.

 

Please read the following installation guidelines thoroughly and 

  follow them carefully. Failure to do so may cause product to fall or 
  otherwise fail, and invalidates warranty.

Please Note:

 Custom products/installations may not be refl ected by this

document. Call Draper, Inc. if you have questions about your installation.
