Install the Blind
Mount the Headrail
• Tilt back the headrail and slide it into the bracket on the sloped
tab. There are two possible headrail designs, each of which is
illustrated below.
• Position the back lip of the headrail behind the rear leg of the
installation bracket.
• Tighten the locking screw to hold the rail securely in place.
End Mount Applications
End mounting is used when the headrail must span an open space
— an arched window opening, for example.
End Mount Bracket Attachment
• Attach the short side of the end mount brackets to the
mounting surface with two screws.
• Be sure the two end mount
brackets are aligned at the
same height.
• Attach the installation
brackets with screws
through the top two
holes on the end mount
brackets.
To remove the headrail, fi rst loosen the locking screw. Then tilt the
headrail back and slide it out of the installation brackets.
• Then attach the installation brackets to the mounting surface with
screws through the two holes in the rear of the bracket spacers.
• Use a carpenter’s level to check that the tops of the brackets are
aligned at the same height before tightening the screws.

Complete the Installation
Attach the Wand Tilter
The tilt mechanism inside the headrail has a metal shaft that extends
beneath the rail. The wand tilter must be attached to this shaft. There
are two types of wands — hook and snap-on.
•
Hook wand:
Remove the plastic sleeve from the top of the wand,
slide it over the metal shaft, insert the wand hook over the hole in
the shaft, and slide the sleeve over the hook to complete the wand
installation.
•
Snap-on wand:
Push up until the snap-on connector snaps into
place, through the hole in the shaft.
• Test the wand tilter by tilting the slats fully closed up and fully
closed down.
Attach Hold-Down Brackets (Optional)
Metal Hold-Down Brackets
• Insert a hold-down pin into each of the bottom rail end caps.
• Attach the hold-down brackets to the jamb, sill or outside
mounting surface. When the blind is fully lowered, the holes in
the hold-down brackets must align with the pins in the bottom
rail end caps.
• Insert the pins into the holes in the hold-down brackets.
