Carefully unwrap the Vision blind and its associated brackets.
There are two bracket options for open cassette blinds, face x and top x.
Fitting the brackets.
For a blind up to 1 metre wide attach two brackets tted approximately 75mm
(3”) from each end of the blind (g. 1). Any intermediate brackets should be
spaced evenly between these and as a general rule:
Up to 1m = 2 brackets
1m to 2m = 3 brackets.
2m to 3m = 4 brackets.
Over 3m = 5 brackets.

Mark the hole positions before drilling and plugging if necessary. Use two screws
in each bracket ensuring that the brackets are level. Remember to allow room for
the blind to clear any obstacles when deployed, e.g. door or window handles.
Fitting the cassette
Once all the brackets are in place offer the blind to the brackets. With the
cassette tilted away from you locate the front lip into the bracket and push
upwards to click the cassette into the back lip of the bracket.
The bracket release lip on the bracket must face the back of the blind.

Child Safety
Your blind will be supplied with either Easybreak® connectors attached to the
operating chain or a cord tidy that will need to be tted to the wall.
Easybreak® System
Two Easybreak® connectors are connected to the operating chain 200mm apart
(g. 2). This ensures that at least one of them will be in the vertical position
ensuring they perform as required.
If excessive weight is applied within the loop a Easybreak®connector will break
apart.
If an Easybreak® connector comes apart then it will need to be re-connected.
To re-connect, check the Easybreak® connector for damage. If undamaged,
re-connect the chain by inserting the last ball on the end of the chain into the
larger hole of the connector and push into place.

Tensioned System using cord tidy.
If the blind is tted with a continuous loop chain then a cord tidy will be attached
to the chain. This must be tted to the wall as follows.
Fitting a cord tidy.
The cord tidy is a two piece device and will arrive with a disposable red tab tted
to it (g. 3).
200mm apart

Remove the disposable red tab by disengaging it from the chain (g. 4) and then
pull out the disposable red tab (g. 5).
Position the cord tidy to the wall at the furthest distance below the roller tube
adding appropriate tension to the chain and mark its location (g. 6).

Screw into the offset hole to x the back piece of the cord tidy to the wall
(g. 10).
Re-assemble the cord tidy with the chain (g. 11) and x it in previously marked
position (g. 6 with a screw through the centre hole (g. 12).

Operating the blind.
Roller System 32®/ 40® Open cassette blinds are reverse rolled. To lower pull the
the front chain downwards with a smooth and steady pressure and to raise, use the
rear chain.
For a conventional rolled blind, to lower the blind, pull the rearmost length of chain
downward. To roll the blind up do the same on the front length of chain.
NOTE TO INSTALLER:
Please ensure a general child safety warning tag is tted on the product.

To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep cords out of the reach of young children. Cords may become
wrapped around a child’s neck. Move beds, cots and furniture away from window covering cords.
Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist and create a loop.
