Attach the Wand (If Ordered)
If the blind was ordered with a wand tilter, attach the wand to the
metal shaft.
• Pull the plastic sleeve from the top of the wand and insert it over
the metal shaft.
• Insert the hook on the wand through the hole in the metal shaft.
• Slide the plastic sleeve down over the hook until firmly seated.
• Test the wand tilter. Approximately six revolutions of the wand
should tilt the slats from fully closed up to fully closed down.

Attach Hold-Down Brackets (Optional)
• Attach the hold-down brackets to the 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.
Attach Valance Returns, If Necessary
For Horizontal Headrails Only
If the valance came with returns and
they are not already attached, connect
the returns to the valance using the
corner clips provided. The notches on
the rear of the valance and returns fit
into the grooves of the corner clips.
• Slide the wider side of each clip
onto the rear of the valance so that
the shorter side aligns with the
edge of the miter cut at each end.
• Slide a return onto each corner clip
until its miter is flush against the
miter on the valance.
Attach the Valance
• Tilt the valance to insert its bottom notch into the bottom part of
the valance clip.
• Pulling the valance slightly downward, insert the top notch of the
valance into the clip, as shown below.
