GETTING STARTED
Thank you for purchasing the Kirsch®Shadings Collection. With proper installation, operation, and care, your new shades will
provide years of beauty and performance.
Please thoroughly review this instruction booklet and the enclosed packing list before beginning the installation. If your shading
has a protective cover on the fabric-covered headrail, keep the plastic in place until the shading is installed.
Tools and Fasteners Needed

Importance of Limit Stops on Shadings
Limit stops serve as the upper travel limit for the bottom rail, preventing it from rotating around the fabric roll. Limit
stops are located 6" from the ends of the headrail or are centered on shadings less than 36" wide.
When a shading is made, the limit stops are adjusted according to the size of the fabric roll. Occasionally, this adjustment
changes during shipping or installation. If this happens, problems can be fixed by readjusting the limit stops. See page
17 in the Troubleshooting section if shading operation is dicult or if the bottom rail rotates around the fabric roll.
Shown below are the four possible positions of limit stops for large to small fabric rolls.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Installation Overview
To install your shading, you will need to perform the following four steps:
STEP 1: Mount the Installation Brackets
STEP 2: Automation and Touch Control Only: Connect the Power Cable
STEP 3: Install the Shading
STEP 4: Connect the Power Source, If Applicable
STEP 1: Mount the Installation Brackets
 The number of installation brackets required varies with shading width, as shown in the table.
Mounting Types and Window Terminology
If the installation brackets are mounted correctly, the rest of the installation process follows easily. To prepare for this important
first step, review the mounting types and basic window terminology illustrated below.
 Refer to the appropriate page below based on your order:

Prepare the Installation Brackets
 If using the optional back cover:
NOTE: If you have a battery wand, do not remove the top tab on the back cover
bracket. The top tab ensures that there is clearance for the battery wand.
 If you have a satellite battery pack or an 18V DC Power Supply, remove the top
tab on the back cover bracket.
 Snap the back cover bracket into the metal installation bracket.
 If not using the optimal back cover:
 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.
Mount the Installation Brackets
 Measure 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 Automation shadings with battery wand, allow a minimum of 17" between bracket centerlines for the battery wand.
NOTE: Before the headrail is installed, the bracket levers need to be fully to the left. Once the headrail is properly in place,
the levers automatically click to the right.
 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. With no back cover, the bottom
tab provides the necessary clearance (
1
⁄ 4 ") for all systems except Automation and Touch Control
with a 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.) Add an extra
1
⁄ 4 " of clearance if the
optimal back cover is used.
 Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level. Shim (not provided) the brackets, if
necessary.
Remove top tab if using a satellite
battery pack or an 18V DC Power Supply.
Back Cover Bracket
Remove bottom tab if using a
battery wand and no back cover.

CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.
 Attach the installation brackets using the screws provided.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten the screws. Check to ensure the lever can be moved easily side to
side. If not, loosen the screws in one-eighth turn increments until the lever can be moved easily.
Retractable Cord Shading: Proceed to “STEP 3: Install the Shading” on page 7.
Automation and Touch Control Shadings: Proceed to “STEP 2: Automation and Touch Control Only — Connect the Power Cable”
on page 6.

 Center the headrail over the window opening at the desired height. Use a pencil to lightly mark each end of the headrail.
 Alternatively, measure the width of the headrail and use that width to mark the headrail end points over the window
opening.
 Mark 2" in from each of the headrail end marks.
 If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional bracket(s) between the two end brackets and
mark their location. Mark into wood whenever possible.
 For Automation and Touch Control shadings with a battery wand, allow a minimum of 17" between bracket centerlines for
the battery wand.
 Center the installation brackets or extension brackets on your
marks and mark where to drill the screw holes.
 A minimum 1" flat vertical surface isrequired for the
installation brackets.
 Position the top of the installation brackets at the desired height of the shading. The
brackets must be level and aligned..
CAUTION: The rear of the brackets must be flush against a flat mounting surface. Do not
mount brackets on curved molding.
IMPORTANT: Additional clearance is required for Automation and Touch Control shadings with a battery wand. See “Additional
Clearance with Spacer Blocks” on page 6.
 Use a
3
⁄ 32 " drill bit to drill holes for the mounting screws.
CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.
 If no additional clearance is required, attach the installation brackets directly to the mounting
surface using the screws provided.
IMPORTANT: The front edged of the installation brackets must be level and aligned to each
other.
