Prepare the Installation Brackets
The purpose of the back cover bracket is to
provide clearance for the battery wand for
PowerView®shadings.
➤If you have a battery wand, remove the
bottom tab from the back cover bracket.
➤Snap the back cover bracket into the metal
installation bracket. This ensures adequate
space for the battery wand.
➤If you have a satellite battery pack or an
18V DC power supply, it is not necessary
to use the back cover bracket.
■Mark 2" from each jamb for bracket location.
➤If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional bracket(s)
between the two end brackets and mark their location. Mount into wood whenever
possible.
➤For PowerView®shadings with battery wand, allow a minimum of 17" between bracket
centerlines for the battery wand(s). A shading may have one or two battery wands.
■Review the minimum depth requirements in the table below.

■Center the installation brackets on your marks and mark the location of the screwholes.
➤Allow sufficient rear clearance when positioning the
brackets. The bottom tab provides the necessary clearance
(
1
/ 4 ") for all systems except PowerView with battery wand,
which requires
7
/ 8 " rear clearance. (Rear clearance is the
distance between the back of the installation bracket and
the glass or frame.)
■Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level. Shim
(not provided) the brackets, if necessary.
■Use a
3
/ 32 " drill bit to drill holes for the mounting screws.
CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.
■Attach the installation brackets using the screws provided.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws. Check to ensure the lever
can be moved easily side to side. If the lever is not moving easily,
loosen the screws one-eighth turn increments until it can be
moved easily.
IMPORTANT: The front edges of the installation brackets must
be level and aligned to each other.
Proceed to “STEP 2 — PowerView®Only: Connect the Power Cables” on page 8 or
