Once the brackets are secured and
level, the fabric roll can be inserted.
Make sure your hands are clean to
avoid soiling the fabric .
Be sure the clutch and roller end plug
are inserted into the roller . Hold the
shade with the bottom of the clutch
facing the floor, and the beaded cord
hanging straight down . Be sure the
shade is fully rolled on the tube .
Insert the spring loaded pin end into
the round hole of the bracket .
Push the clutch end toward the pin
end to compress the spring . The pin
should compress half way in for best
fit. Line up the hooks on the clutch
with the two slots in the bracket .
Allow the spring to release and let
the hooks go into the slots .
Once the two hooks are through the
slots, gently pull down on the clutch
until the hooks lock securely to the
bracket .
Bracket covers come standard
for outside mount shades and if
requested for non-flush inside
mounted shades . If your shade came
with bracket covers, slide the bracket
covers over the bracket until they
snap into place .
