INSTALLATION

Mount the Installation Brackets
■
Mark 2" from each jamb for bracket location.
➤
If more than two installation brackets came with your order, space additional bracket(s)
between the two end brackets and mark their location. Mount into wood whenever
possible.
➤
For PowerView
®
or SoftTouch
®
shadings with battery wand, allow a minimum of 18"
between bracket centerlines for the battery wand/rechargeable battery wand.
NOTE: Before the headrail is installed, the bracket levers need to be fully to the left.
Once the headrail is properly in place, the levers automatically click to the right.
■
Review the minimum depth requirements in the table below.
■
Center the installation brackets on your marks and mark the location of the screw holes.
➤
Allow sufficient rear clearance when positioning the
brackets. With no back cover, the bottom tab provides the
necessary clearance (
1
⁄
4
") for all systems except PowerView
and SoftTouch with a battery wand/rechargeable battery
wand, which requires
7
⁄
8
" rear clearance. (Rear clearance is
the distance between the back of the installation bracket
and the glass or frame.) Add an extra
1
⁄
4
" of rear clearance
if the optional back cover is used.
IMPORTANT:
The back cover is not available with the
rechargeable battery wand.
■
Use a level to check that the mounting surface is level. Shim (not provided) the brackets, if
necessary.
■
Use a
3
⁄
32
" drill bit to drill holes for the mounting screws.
CAUTION: Use drywall anchors when mounting into drywall.
