Installation guide
Installation – Chain Control
When installing a blind, it is crucial that the blind is perfectly horizontal and level to prevent the fabric from tracking to the sides during operation. Failing to do so will damage the fabric and possibly the control mechanism too. In extreme cases the blind could jam up and fall down.
- Noting which side the control will be, place the control bracket in place and secure it with adequate screws.
- Place the pin end bracket in place and secure it with adequate screws. – If necessary, with a pencil make a small mark where your control bracket will be secured (This will be where the back of the bracket is) and measure the width of the blind to establish where your pin end bracket will be.
- Insert the blind, control side first, onto the tongue of the control bracket ensuring that the chain is hanging free and the chain cover (the top part of the control mechanism) is facing upwards.
- Insert the pin end of the blind into the pin end bracket. (To remove the blind, simply rotate the flat, clear disk on the pin end. This will retract the pin into the mechanism and allow the blind to be taken down).
- Using the chain, lower the blind to the decided bottom limit. (Noting which way the chain is feeding into the chain control).
- Once the blind is at the desired bottom limit, on the chain identify the last ball you can see before the chain enters the mechanism and place a chain stopper on or above the ball. (The bottom limit is now set).
- Using the chain, raise the blind to the desired top limit.
- Once the blind is at the desired top limit, on the chain identify the last ball you can see before the chain enters the mechanism and place the second chain stopper on or above the ball. (The top limit is now set).
Installation – Motor Control
When installing a blind, it is crucial that the blind is perfectly horizontal and level to prevent the fabric from tracking to the sides during operation. Failing to do so will damage the fabric and possibly the control mechanism too. In extreme cases the blind could jam up and fall down.
- Noting which side the control will be, place the control bracket in place and secure it with adequate screws.
- Place the pin end bracket in place and secure it with adequate screws. – If necessary, with a pencil make a small mark where your control bracket will be secured (This will be where the back of the bracket is) and measure the width of the blind to establish where your pin end bracket will be.
- Place the motor head onto the control bracket tongue. (Ensuring the wire/s is not obstructing the motor from fully sliding onto the bracket).
- Insert the pin end of the blind into the pin end bracket. (To remove the blind, simply rotate the flat, clear disk on the pin end. This will retract the pin into the mechanism and allow the blind to be taken down).
- Follow programming instruction for the motor.
