Problem

The shading raises or lowers unevenly, the fabric rubs against one end of 
the headrail, or the bottom rail is uneven when fully raised.

Solution

Check that the window is square by measuring the diagonals.
Check that the installation brackets are level. Shim (not provided) to level, if 
necessary.
Check that the limit stops are adjusted the same and are not too tight. 
Perform a skew adjustment for the front shading or rear shade. See below.

Adjust the Bottom Rail Weight of the Front Shading

Flip up the bottom rail to access the bottom rail weight.

To release the weight clip, insert a flat blade screwdriver into the weight clip 
and turn clockwise.

Move the weight in 1" increments  
toward the side where the fabric  
is gathering.

Secure the weight clips in position by turning them counterclockwise after 
making the adjustment.

Test and, if necessary, adjust again.

Apply Skew Adjustment Tape to the Rear Roller Shade

Using the tape strips and instruction guide in the Skew Adjustment Kit included 
with your order, place the tape strips onto the window side of the rear roller 
shade fabric. The number of tape strips and their placement depends on the 
type and severity of the skew, as explained in the instruction guide.
