  • Page 11: Level The Bottom Rail (If Necessary)

    INSTALLATION Shade Height Adjustment Shade height and adjustments to level the bottom rail can be made by adjusting the cord on the underside of the bottom rail. Locate the ferrule, seated in a pocket in the bottom rail. Remove the ferrule by pulling on the excess cord.
  • Page 12 INSTALLATION UNIVERSAL CORD TENSIONER Before doing anything, you must first slide the universal cord tensioner to the bottom of the cord loop. Insert a small screwdriver, through the screw hole at the bottom of the cord tensioner. Move the screw hole down to the indicator line to release the safety mechanism.
  • Page 13 INSTALLATION • Hold the cord tensioner firmly in place and check that the cord can move freely through it. If the cord does not move freely through the cord tensioner, it is too tight and the cord tensioner and/or bracket should be moved up.
  • Page 14 INSTALLATION • Attach the inside mount bracket to the cord tensioner. The nub on the inside mount bracket fits into the back of the screw hole in the cord tensioner. • Insert the small screw into the front of the screw hole to secure the cord tensioner to the bracket.
  • Page 15 INSTALLATION Face Mount  • This option uses three screws and is attached to an outside mount bracket. Locate the cord tensioner as close to the window covering as possible to minimize accessibility by children and pets. Be sure the cord tensioner is not placed in the path of the bottom rail and fabric.
  • Page 16: Operation

    OPERATION • Ensure the cord can move freely through the cord tensioner without engaging the lock. The centre of the screw hole should be aligned with the indicator line on the cord tensioner. Do not pull the screw hole down to the bottom of the slot. This may cause the cord to become too tight, affecting the window covering function and increasing cord wear.

    OPERATION Troubleshooting Problem The shade is hard to raise or lower, or will not raise or lower. Solution Check that the cord tensioner is mounted correctly. See the instructions included with your Universal Cord Tensioner Installation on page 10. For Duolite and Top Down/Bottom Up Shades: The lift cords in the headrail may have “overturned”.
  • Page 18 OPERATION Problem The shade will not fit into the installation brackets. Solution Check that the installation brackets are level and aligned. Shim the installation brackets to level the headrail, if necessary. Be sure the heads of the screws are flush against the installation bracket.
