Fitting Instructions Roller Blinds

OUTSIDE RECESS: If the blind is to be fitted outside the window ensure that measurement C is the same. Follow the instructions for FACE FIXING. To calculate C (A-B)/2.

INSIDE RECESS: TOP FIX to the lintel. FACE FIX bracket to the window frame.

CHILDREN CAN STRANGLE IF A SAFETY DEVICE IS NOT INSTALLED. ALWAYS USE A SAFETY DEVICE TO KEEP CORDS AND CHAINS OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

TOP FIXING

Measure and mark the distance (D), allowing for obstructions like handles that protrude into the recess area. Hold each bracket into place and mark the hole positions. Fit each bracket using suitable screws. Please ensure fixings are suitable for the wall/surface to which you are mounting the brackets.

FACE FIXING

Hold each bracket into place and mark the hole positions. Fit each bracket using suitable screws. Please ensure fixings are suitable for the wall/surface to which you are mounting the brackets.

Holding the fully-wound blind, insert the idle pin end into the bracket as shown.

With the Idle pin end in place. Insert the control end into the opposite bracket by depressing the pin end then pull down vertically until the control end clicks into position.

SAFETY DEVICE

The safety device must be installed at the maximum distance possible from the control mechanism to prevent the looped chain from becoming slack. Place the safety device on the wall and mark the positioning of the 2 screw holes. Drill holes using a suitable drill bit. Place the device into position ensuring the chain is fully taut. (If your blind is supplied with a child-safe easy break chain connector, there is no requirement to fit an additional child safety device- steps 4 and 5 can be skipped)

FITTING THE SAFETY DEVICE

Screw the safety device securely to the wall using suitable fixings.

WARNING
Young children can be strangled by loops in pull cords, chains, tapes, and inner cords that operate 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.

FABRIC RUN-OFF

Diagram 1 below shows the fabric running off from the right-hand side of the blind. To correct the run-off, unroll the fabric, and place a 25mm piece of sticky tape onto the tube (Diagram 2) at the opposite end of the blind to the run-off. Fully wind the blind up. Repeat until the fabric is no longer running off.

STANDARD ROLL

(Fabric unrolls from behind blind)

To lower the fabric on the roller blind gently pull the operating chain closest to the window.
To raise the fabric on the blind gently pull the operating chain furthest from the window.
Where possible operating chain should be operated from just above the chain connector as this puts less pressure on this component, reducing the risk of snapping or pulling apart.

REVERSE ROLL

(Fabric unrolls from front of blind)

To lower the fabric on the roller blind gently pull the operating chain furthest from the window
To raise the fabric on the roller blind gently pull the operating chain closest to the window.
Where possible operating chain should be operated from just above the chain connector as this puts less pressure on this component, reducing the risk of snapping or pulling apart.
