Measure from window sill up to desired mounting position on each
side of the window frame. Mark position. Mount Side Mount Brackets
on each side of window frame as shown. Make sure to confirm that
headrail will sit perfectly level. Once Side Mount Brackets are
installed and properly positioned, attach the Standard Mounting
Brackets using the nuts and bolts provided
Extension Brackets (optional)
Optional Extension Brackets are used to project the back of the
shading up to 2 1/2" from the mounting surface. Attach the Standard
Mounting Bracket to the Extension Bracket with the nut and bolt
provided.
BASICS
Please take a moment to identify which headrail version you have and
then follow the appropriate instructions.
A few simple tools are required:
- Measuring tape
- Carpenters Level
- Power drill with Phillips driver bit or Phillips head
Screwdriver
- Flat Head Screwdriver
Additional fasteners other than those sent with your shading may be
required depending on the mounting surface. Wallboard and plaster require
the use of anchors such as expansion or toggle bolts. Brick, tile or stone
need special plugs and drill bits. Remember to always pre-drill holes in
wood to avoid splitting.
Step 1. BRACKET INSTALLATION
The end brackets should be located with
centerlines as noted in the illustrations.
Depending on the width of the shading,
necessary additional brackets may be evenly
spaced between the two end brackets.

If the headrail or roller does not sit level, the fabric will not roll up
evenly which could damage the edges of the shading fabric.

Step 3. TENSION ADJUSTMENT
If the shade does not retract fully, you may need to increase the
tension by using a flat head screwdriver.
On a STANDARD ROLLthe adjustment is made at the LEFT end of
the shade. On a REVERSE ROLL the adjustment is made at the
RIGHT end of the shade.
Step 4. UPSTOP ADJUSTMENT
Retract the shade and let it stop at the top. If you do not like where
the upstop is set it can be adjusted, using a flat head screwdriver.
On a STANDARD ROLLthe adjustment is made at the RIGHT end
of the shade. On a REVERSE ROLL the adjustment is made at the
LEFT end of the shade.
Warning: When setting the upstop, do not allow the bottom
rail to jamb between the installation brackets. This will result
in damage to the fabric.
Step 5. HOLD DOWN INSTALLATION (optional)
Optional Hold Down Brackets are mounted with the
supplied screws. With the shade at its proper drop,
place the pin of each Hold Down into the hole in
each End Cap and mark the screw holes. Make
sure the pins are level and aligned. Raise the
shade, then screw the Hold Down Bracket into the
mounting surface.
Step 6. SKEW ADJUSTMENT (if necessary)
If the shade does not raise evenly, first make sure the mounting
brackets are mounted level with each other.
If the shade is not level, pull the shade all of the way
down. Prepare a strip of masking tape approximately
5" long. On the side of the shade opposite of the
skewing direction, and as close to the end of the roller
as possible, lift the fabric toward the back of the
shade using your fingers and slide the tape with the
sticky side facing the roller up as far as possible. The
tape is to be running parallel to the roller.
Roll the shade up and check for skewing. If the shade is still skewing,
add another strip of tape on top of the first one. If the shade is now
skewing to the opposite direction, tear off about 1" of tape from the
last strip installed. The tape is to be torn from the end closest to the
center of the shade.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Over-extended shade (stuck in the down position)
-
If the shade is pulled down past the
ordered length to full extension of
the fabric it may not unlock. If this
happens the roller needs to be
turned by hand to unlock the
release device. Turn the roller a 1/4
turn in the direction that lowers the
shade. Then release to allow the
shade to raise.
CLEANING AND CARE
Occasional light vacuuming with a soft bristle attachment or gentle
feather dusting is all that is required to keep your Roller Shades
looking fresh and neat. Most Roller Shades may also be
ultrasonically cleaned, except those made with Phifer SheerWeave
fabrics.
Phifer SheerWeave fabrics are easy to maintain and only require
occasional vacuuming with a soft brush attachment or washing with
mild soap. Soak a sponge or damp cloth with the soapy solution and
gently wipe or blot the stain from the fabric. To dry, allow the shade
to air dry completely before raising.
If the shading has any wrinkling, lower the shade and leave in the
lowered position for 5 to 7 days. The heat from the sun will smooth
out any light wrinkles.
