3. The spring must be on the right-hand side unless the fabric is reverse rolled.
4. The spring would have been tensioned during the manufacturing process
but the tension can be increased or decreased if required.
5. If the fabric does not wind up completely when the blind is operated, greater
spring tension can be applied as follows:
a) Bring the blind down 250mm from its uppermost position.
b) Remove the blind from the brackets and roll the fabric by hand back onto
the roller.
c) Replace the blind in the brackets.
d) If tension is still not enough, repeat steps a to c.
e) If tension is too much follow the above but in reverse i.e. remove the blind
from the brackets and unroll the fabric by hand of the roller. Ensure the
blind is not over tensioned as it will result in the bottom bar crashing into
the blind and potentially jamming.

done without taking the blind out of its brackets if preferred. Use a flat head
screwdriver through the hole in the bracket to either increase or decrease
the tension as desired.

testing, the push-in screw cover MUST be fitted ensuring that it is flush with

Care should be taken when assessing or arranging a room to ensure that
YewdaleKestrel®products cannot be misused in conjunction with any other
item, furniture or fixings in the room. It is the responsibility of the end user or
client to ensure the product is suitable for the environment it is being installed
in. YewdaleKestrel®products must be fitted by a qualified professional with
an up to date training certificate and in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. Failure to do so could jeopardise the product’s eectiveness as
an anti-ligature system. All installations must be tested when complete to
ensure the downward force does not exceed the maximum nor is it breaking
under below normal force. It is highly recommended that sign o with proof of
testing is issued to the client after installation.
