Savant SHA-B8CL 00 Series Quick Reference Manual

Savant® Shade Corner Drive Left (SHA-B8CLxx-00)
Quick Reference Guide
The shade mount in the SHA-B8CLxx corner shade mount kit is a floating/outside type mount for the drive (motor) side of a Savant shade
installation. The mount has a 45° bevel with a slot cut in the bevel so it can be joined together with any of the other corner type mounts using
an angled bracket (angled bracket is included in the SHA-B7CRxx and SHA-B8CRxx shade mount kits). The shade mounts in the SHA-B7 and
SHA-B8 shade corner mounts kits are typically installed where two windows meet each other to form either an inside or outside 90° angle. The
shade mount in the SHA-B8CLxx kit is a floating/outside type mount and is installed using the included shade mount sleeve and 2 inch hanger
bolt. Savant recommends that the drive side shade mount be installed first. Once mounted, it can then be used as a reference point for mounting
the idler side (SHA-B7CLxx).

HELPFUL! Before starting the mounting process, review the diagram below to ensure a trouble free install.
– Install the shade mount so the center point of the mount is installed at least
1 ³/ ₄
inch (minimum) from any obstructions.
– To aid in the installation of the SHA-B8CL shade mount, a template (SHA-
INSTEMP-xx) is available. This template contains all the holes and spacing
required to mount any Savant shade mount.
– To reduce marking up the walls, it is recommended that painters tape be
used whenever drilling is involved.

Drill Hole for Shade Motor Wires

Before installing onto ceiling, a hole must be drilled into the side of the mount to feed the wires for the shade motor through. Because this is a
corner type mount, two shade mounts are assembled together. Therefore, the hole for the shade motor wires must be drilled opposite the 45°
bevel of the mount. Follow instructions below for where to drill the hole.
1. Mark where to drill the hole in the shade mount using the diagram below.
Hole should be positioned opposite the 45° bevel on side of mount.

2. Drill an inch hole into the side of the mount. Do not drill all the way
through. Drill so wires can be fed into opening in rear of mount.
