Troubleshooting
Roller loose in brackets:
If shade roller is loose in brackets (roller should have about
1
/ 8 " end play) and
doesn’t readily roll up shade, unroll shade and remove from brackets. Re-roll the
cloth by hand and replace it in brackets.
Roller too tight:
If shade roller is wound too tight, shade will not fully or freely unroll. Remove rolled
up shade from brackets, partially unroll cloth by hand, and replace in brackets.
Field Adjustments
Each Draper Solar Control Shade is tested to ensure proper operation. Even
with this testing, some field adjustments may be needed for telescoping. If the
shade is telescoping, place a piece of high quality gaffer tape about 1" wide on the
exposed roller (where the fabric will cover it) on the side that you want the fabric
drawn toward. For example: if the fabric is tracking to the left, place the tape on the
right side.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Window covering products manufactured by Draper, when properly installed,
should require no operational maintenance or lubrication.
Most of Draper’s standard fabrics may be cleaned at the window by vacuuming
with a soft brush attachment. They may also be cleaned by using a sponge or soft
cloth and mild solution of warm soapy water. A dishwashing liquid, such as Ivory
liquid, is recommended. A clean dry cloth is recommended for the metal finish.
Exceptions are Flocké and Roc-Rol fabrics, which must be cleaned with a
dry art sponge.
Spring Tensioning Instructions
1Clamp the flat spear on the left end of the roller securely (a pair of vise-
grip locking pliers works well) and rotate clockwise 15 turns. Take care
not to allow the pliers to slip as tension increases.
2Once the desired amount of rotations have been added, stop the rotation
of the slotted end in a vertical position. The vertical position must be
maintained to lock the mechanism.
3Release a small amount of pressure off the roller and allow it to rotate very
slowly (less than 180 degrees of rotation will be necessary). This will allow
the spring mechanism to lock into position.
**Please Note: When mounting brackets to the wall, use
the hole closest to the wall. When mounting brackets to
the ceiling, use the hole furthest away from the ceiling.
