Step 3 Attach End Rails first Step 4 Attach side rails on top of end rails
Step 5 Attach attached the Head Rail clips ½”
above the edge of the end rail –insure clips are on a
level plan.
Step 6 Attach attached the bottom rail clips ½”
above the edge of the end rail –insure clips are on a
level plan.
Step 7 Install the battery tube on top of the end rail so it will be just below the shade. Use the
small piece of weather strip to keep the battery tube from moving. If the shade is hardwired see
the attached page. Please make sure the antenna wire is pointed into the room and the plastic
sheath is not cut or touching any metal so no in advert interference is caused.
Rail above clips is only to assist in checking that the clips are level
Note: The bottom edge of the head rail clip is ½” above end rail edge
Note: The bottom edge of the bottom rail clip is ½”
above end rail edge

Step 8 PREPARE and CLIP the Shade Head Rail In The
2 lines in the head rail will face toward the floor (see
picture to the right)–the Lay the shade out removing
the tape on the antenna and battery cable, making
sure all the strings line up. Remove the tissue from
the bottom rail where the turnbuckle is located. The
tension has been pre-set for the measurement
/ordered orders size, however may need to be
tighted.

Ilustration to the
left is showing
how to clip the
head rail of the
shade into the clip.
Step 9 Twist the bottom rail into the bracket
Make sure the turnbuckle is centered in the bottom rail
and that no knots appear through the eyelet holes and
the rail is square to the head rail and centered in the
opening. So when the travel rail moves it will not hit any
thing.
The key to successful installation is to insure the shade has no friction - it doesn’t hit or
drag on anything while it is operating.

Notes:
The remote control will operate shades from as far as 50 feet
away. Point the remote control at the shade and push the
center button to wake the shade up for it hibernation mode.
Then push the up or down button to move the shade in the
desired direction. Use the center button to stop the shade from
moving. One remote control will operate up to 4 equal length
shades, but all at the same time. There is a label on the back of
each remote control designating the number of the shade.
There are also instructions in each and on remote control
carton which should be observed.
Be sure to wipe off the side rails to eliminate construction dust
and particles that can cause the shade to make a scraping noise
when it is operated.
Trouble Shooting
1.) There is no power to the motor when you press the remote
control or switch.
Check that the wires are correctly connected from the power
center going to the shade.
2.) The shade sags in the window.
Tighten the turnbuckle in the bottom rail.
3.) The shade closes unevenly at the bottom of the window.
Make Sure the shade is installed squarely. When the shade
is completed up adjust the travel rail so the fabric is equal
on both sides.
4.) The shade stops half way down the window.
The shade travel rail is hitting something, so move the shade
so it will be free from touching anything. This situation may
result in having to send the shade back to be rebuilt.
