MOUNT THE BRACKETS
The brackets are designed for inside or
outside mount installations. Brackets
should be placed no further than 2” in
from each end of the headrail. If more
than two brackets are required, space
at equal intervals. Use two screws per
bracket.
If spacers are being used, line the
holes up with the installation bracket
first.
If extension brackets are being used,
install those first and then attach the
installation bracket with pan head nut &
bolts provided.

MOUNT THE HEADRAIL
First lower the blind about 1 inch below the headrail. This will keep the slats from getting in the way of the installation.
Position the headrail with the back (

) resting on both bottom prongs of the bracket. Push the front of the ehadrail-
firmly upward and toward the windowuntil the groove at the top of the headrail snaps into place, (

) as shown.
Make sure all brackets are level with each other.
