SunSetter EASYSHADE Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions page 7

CAUTION: The installation procedure for the
Motorized EasyShade includes the use of Cable
Guides to stabilize the extended Solar Screen Fabric
Panel during normal use. If your application does
not permit the installation of the necessary Cable
Guides or you do not plan to install them, you must
use additional care to prevent damage to your
product. While we do not recommend installing the
Motorized EasyShade without the supplied Cable
Guides, some customers may determine that their
application does not have a vertical surface to install
the supplied Cable Guides as instructed.
10. Unroll the Vinyl Coated Guide Cables located at
each end of the Aluminum Housing Assembly, and
allow them to hang flat against the Mounting Surface.
See Figure 10.

the Guide Holes at each end of the Leading Bar, at the
bottom of the EasyShade Solar Screen.

12. Determine how far down your EasyShade will be
extended (this is limited to the length of the Vinyl
Coated Cable, but you can not exceed 84" from the
bottom of the EasyShade Housing). Mark a Horizontal
Line on the wall below each end of the EasyShade
Housing Assembly. See Figure 12.

13. Using the Vinyl Coated Cable as a guide, ensure
the Cable is straight and plumb (using a level) and
mark a Vertical Line (see Figure 13) where it crosses
the Horizontal Line made in Step 12.
Cable Guide Brackets must be mounted on the same
vertical plane as the EasyShade Aluminum Housing.

14. Locate the Cable Guide Brackets and Cable Guide
Stops in your Hardware Package.
15. Align the top of the Cable Guide Brackets below
the Horizontal Line and centered on the Vertical Lines
as shown in Figure 14. Ensure the Bracket is plumb
and on the same vertical plane as the Aluminum
Housing above, then mark both screw hole locations.
Remove the Bracket and pre-drill both screw hole
locations with a 1/8" drill bit. Repeat for the other side
of the EasyShade.
