CAUTION:
Failure to properly align the brackets could result in the
headrail releasing from the brackets causing the shading to fall, possibly
resulting in injury or property damage.
• Drill the screw holes using a
3
/
32
" drill bit.
IMPORTANT:
Use drywall anchors when mounting
into drywall.
• Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level.
Shim the brackets, if necessary. (Use the top tab that
was removed from the brackets.)
• Attach the installation brackets using the screws provided.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overtighten the screws. Check to ensure the lever can be
moved easily side to side. If not, loosen the screws in one-eighth
turn increments until the lever can be moved easily.
IMPORTANT:
The front edges of the installation
brackets must be level and aligned to each other.
• If using spacer block(s), stack spacer block(s) on top
of the installation brackets. Using #6 Hex Head Screws,
long enough for secure installation (not provided), install
screws up through the underside of the installation bracket and spacer block(s) into
mounting surface. Use the front set of bracket holes when depth permits.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT add more than 1 ½". of clearance using the spacer blocks.
Proceed to “Install Batteries/Connect to Power Source” on page 10.
OUTSIDE MOUNT
Prepare the Installation Brackets
• Use pliers or heavy duty scissors to remove BOTH
the top and bottom tabs on the installation brackets.
NOTE
: Save these tabs once removed. They may be used as shims, if necessary.
Mount the Installation Brackets
• Center the headrail over the window opening at the desired height. Use a pencil to
lightly mark each end of the headrail.
— Alternatively, measure the width of the headrail and use that width to mark the
headrail end points over the window opening.
• Mark 2" to 3" from each end of the headrail.
— If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional
bracket(s) evenly between the two end brackets and mark their location.
Mount into wood whenever possible.
Allow a minimum of 18" from the
motor side of the headrail, and 15" between installation brackets to
accommodate the standard battery pack. See page 11 for standard
battery pack installation.
CAUTION:
Failure to follow ALL installation instructions may cause the shading
to fall, possibly resulting in injury or property damage.
INSIDE MOUNT
Prepare the Installation Brackets
•
If using the standard battery pack
:
Use pliers or heavy-duty scissors to remove BOTH the top and bottom tabs on
the installation bracket to ensure there is clearance for the battery pack.
NOTE
: Save these tabs once removed. They may be used as shims, if necessary.
Mount the Installation Brackets
• Measure and mark 2" to 3" in from each jamb for bracket location.
— If more than two installation brackets come with your order, space additional
bracket(s) evenly between the two end brackets and mark their location.
Mount into wood whenever possible.
Allow a minimum of 18" from the
motor side of the headrail, and 15" between installation brackets to
accommodate the standard battery pack. See page 11 for standard
battery pack installation.
• Center the brackets on your marks, then mark the screw hole locations.
— Refer to the chart below for mounting depth requirements.
— Use the rear set of holes with shallow mounting depths.
Use the front set of holes when depth permits.
IMPORTANT:
The front edges of the installation brackets
must be level and aligned to each other.
