I. Splicing the Track
If your track is UNSPLICED, proceed to Section 2: Drapery Track Installation
1. Unpack the Track
1.1 - Remove track from plastic and take out the foam block inside
the track that secures the belt.
NOTE: On any spliced track over 12’ in length, be sure to use two or more people to lift the track to prevent bending the splice.
Do not pick up any spliced track upside down or the splice will bend.
1.2 - With the track positioned upside down (carriers pointed up),
apply tension to the belt by gripping both pieces of the
master carrier and pulling them together as you straighten the
track sections. This will help prevent the belt from coming out of
the channels.
2. Install Master Carrier Retaining Plate
2.1 - With the straighten track remaining upside down,
continue moving the master carrier pieces towards each
other while unfolding the track sections.
2.2 - Insert the master carrier retaining plate into both
plastic sections. On center draw applications, do this for both
master carriers.
2.3 - On tracks with string carriers be sure the metal master
carrier retaining plate is oriented correctly to ensure a fit over the
inserted string end.
3. Secure Splice
3.1 - Flip the track on its side, so that the top of the track is
facing towards you. The metal track splice will be inserted into
one side of the track.
3.2 - Loosen the four set screws in the splice using the provided
tool, then slide the splice over the joint where the halves come
together. Maintain good alignment and tighten the four set screws.
Do not over tighten.
4. Assemble the Master Carrier and Arms
4.1 - Using the diagram inserted with this manual, assemble the master carrier by affixing the wheeled carrier attachment and
carrier arm to the master carrier. Use the provided screws to retain all pieces together.
cOn enter draw applications, be sure to do this for both master carriers.
On side draw applications, be sure the arm is facing the full close direction of the track.

Double check drapery height, drapery width, and track length before beginning your installation. Drapery track must be level
and all brackets must be vertically aligned for track to function properly.
NOTE: If your track is spliced, follow the splicing instructions for proper assembly.
1. INSTALL THE BRACKETS
1.1 - Install the outer brackets first. Locate the center of the outer brackets 6” from each end of the track. See Figure 2.1.1
(If the drapery is center draw, use the centerline of the window opening as a reference. For side draw applications, adjust track
position if necessary to accommodate for drapery stackback.)
Figure 2.1.1 - Bracket Placement
2. DRapery Track Installation
1.2 - Evenly space the remaining brackets every 16”-36” (for dual tracks, additional brackets will be required). See bracket chart
on page 3.
For wall mount applications, use the following formula to determine
bracket mounting height. Install brackets using “bottom side” as
reference point.
BH = TE + DH + BC
- BH = Bracket Height
- TE = Track Exposure
- DH = Drapery Height
- BC = Bottom Clearance
For ceiling mount applications with fascia, use the provided spacers.

The brackets at each end must be located no more than 6 inches from either end of the drapery track, additional bracket
is required at motor end to accomodate additional pull force from Pendant.
If no structural member is present at each bracket location, an anchor suitable for the weight of the drapery, drapery
track, and motor must be used.
Each remaining bracket should be evenly spaced across the remainder of the drapery track.
Heavier drapery panels may require additional brackets.
On standard panels, use the center bracket to screw directly into the splice. On heavier drapery panels, mounts should
be placed 6 to 8 inches away from either side of the splice seam.
Refer to anchor manufacturers pull out forces recommendation.
Contact Current Products Corp. customer service for assistance in calculating pull out forces.

Figure 2.2.3 - Screw into splice or place brackets on either side
of splice.
2A. INSTALL THE TRACK
2.1 - Begin with the camlocks in the open position. See Figure 2.2.1.
If using fascia, install fascia clips before track installation.
For ceiling mount installations be sure the return clips are installed
prior to installation of the track to the camlocks.
2.2 - On unspliced tracks, starting in the middle, secure the track
onto each of the brackets using the camlock. For center draw
applications, align the centerline of the track with the centerline of
the window opening.
To lock, twist camlock arm clockwise. See Figure 2.2.2.
2.3 - If your track is spliced, either:
Screw the center bracket screw into the center hole in the splice,
loosening and retightening the set screws to adjust splice placement
if necessary.
Or if using heavy curtains, place one bracket 8 inches to the left, and
one bracket 8 inches to the right of the splice seam.
See Figure 2.2.3.
2.4 - For wall mount applications, once all the camlocks are closed,
use a Phillips Head screwdriver to tighten each camlock.

3. ADJUST NUMBER OF CARRIERS
3.1 - It may be necessary to add or remove carriers based on the
curtain size, fullness, and pleat spacing. To add or remove carriers,
remove the motor if it is installed. Then, loosen the hardstop screw
and slide it out of the track. See Figure 2.3.1.
3.2 - For loose carriers, insert or remove carriers until the
correct amount remain in the track. Center draw applications
may require adding or subtracting carriers from each side.
See Figure 2.3.2.
3.3 - For carriers that are strung together, the entire string will
need to be changed if more or less carriers are desired (dictated
by carrier string spacing). Contact Current Products Corp.
customer support for details. See Figure 2.3.3.
