Draper Futureguard FlexShade Zip Installation Instructions Manual

Installation Instructions
Futureguard
®
READ BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1 Inspect all boxes to make sure you have received the proper parts.
2 Open cartons lengthwise.
3 All hardware must be installed level. Shades must be level and
square.
4 Fasteners are not supplied by Futureguard. It is the responsibility of
the installer to make sure that appropriate ones for the mounting
surface are used. For Jamb Mounting, Futureguard recommends the
use of low profile head screws to allow the "zippers" to easily pass
through the Side Channels.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
1 Make sure the mounting surface is strong enough to hold the
FlexShade Zip.
PLEASE NOTE: It is the responsibility of the installer to use
appropriate fasteners for the mounting surface.
2 Verify unit measurements and make sure it will fit in the desired
location.

5 For installing units in recessed areas where there isn't room to mount
the Headbox to the Side Channels, please see note on page 6.
6 FlexShade Zip is designed to operate only when the fabric panel
is installed vertically, perpendicular to the ground. Angled
installations, where the Side Channels are NOT installed vertically,
may prevent the unit from closing.
7 DO NOT run down shade cloth outside of the Side Channels.
8 Please read the following installation guidelines thoroughly and
follow them carefully. Failure to do so may cause product to fall or
otherwise fail, and invalidates the warranty.
PLEASE NOTE: The Hembar does not retract
into the Headbox. This will need to be
accounted for if mounting over a swinging
window or door.
3 Mounting Brackets MUST be installed with a
gap of 1¾" (45mm) between the End Cap and
the Mounting Bracket edge (See Fig. 1).
