Cassetted Blinds:
N.B. This blind should be installed by a person competent in DIY. If in doubt
please consult a professional.
1.Remove the two safety screws in the underside of the head box to enable the
cover to open (if sidewinder, also unscrew the chain guide).
2.Using the indents (see diagram below) within the head box, drill 3.8mm
fixing holes either in the top or back depending on whether it is required to
be face or recess fixed. Fixing holes should be equally spaced and no more
than 1m apart to ensure head box is fixed completely level.
3.Lift the head box in to place. If you are fitting it to steel or concrete, mark
where the holes need to be drilled so the hole can be plugged. Drill the
holes and lift the head box into place and fix using the appropriate screws.
If fitting it to timber, simply fix the head box in place using the appropriate
screws.
NB. To operate correctly, complete blind MUST be level.

4.Insert the barrel and fabric into the head box. If it is spring controlled, go to
point 5 - 6 and then to point 11. If the blind is side winder controlled, go to
point 7- 9 and then to point 11. If the blind is crank controlled, go to point 9
and then to point 16. If it is electrically controlled, go to point 10 and refer to
motor instructions for setting limit stops.
5.Insert/click the blind on to the back bar into the head box. The spring must
be on the right-hand side unless fabric is reverse rolled.
6.The spring would have been tensioned during the manufacturing process
but the tension can be increased or decreased if required. If the fabric does
not wind up completely when the blind is operated, greater spring tension
can be applied as follows:
a) The spring would have been tensioned during the manufacturing process
but the tension can be increased or decreased if required. If the fabric
does not wind up completely when the blind is operated, greater spring
tension can be applied as follows:
b) Remove the blind and back bar from the head box.
c) Use a flat head screwdriver through the hole in the bracket at the spring
end to either increase or decrease the tension as desired.
d) Insert/click the barrel and fabric back into the head box.
e) Attach the pull cord onto the bottom bar.
7.Fix the chain guide into position by threading the chain through the chain
guide. Ensure that the chain is not twisted.
8.Re attach the chain guide using the screws provided.
9.Insert the barrel and fabric into the head box.
10.Drill an exit hole for the electric cable and insert the fabric and barrel into
the head box, making sure the supply cable is carefully threaded through.
11.If side guiding is required, please follow the instructions overleaf. If not
required then click the cover back in place and secure using the 2 safety
screws previously removed.
12.Check the blind operates correctly.

13.Ensure the relevant child safety device is used to comply with BS
EN13120:2009+A1:2014, BS EN16433:2014 and BS EN16434:2014 as
follows: *You will have been provided with either a chain tidy or easy
break chain connector (also see page 8 & 11)
Chain Tidy
The chain tidy will be attached to the chain
when the blind arrives. The chain tidy should
be at a maximum distance from the control
mechanism, keeping the chain taut (not
under excessive tension however as this
could negatively aect the longevity and
operation of the blind). Put the retaining
device on the wall, mark fixing holes with a
pencil, drill the holes and screw the device
to the wall with suitable fixings.
Easy Break Chain Connectors
Two easy break chain connectors are connected to the operating chain
200mm apart. 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 connector will come apart. If a connector comes apart
and is undamaged then it will need to be re-connected by inserting the
last ball on the end of the chain into the hole in the connector and pushed
into place.
