Windy conditions may affect the performance of a retractable screen.  Retract the 
screen in windy circumstances, during inclement weather, when not needed to 
support immediate ventilation or during prolong periods when not used.

CHAIN LOCK 

Position 

H-Chain Lock

 on the side wall jamb so that it rests approximately 42"  

up from the sill of the floor. Attach to the wall using 

P - #8 x 1"(25mm)  

Phillips Panhead Screws

When the screen is fully extended and being used the Pull Chain should be oper-
ated so that the screen fabric is taut in the opening and then the chain should be 
secured by the 

H-Chain Lock

.  This will help retain the screen fabric in the B-Inside 

Rails as wind hits the screen fabric.

CAUTION: Keep chain out of the reach of children at all times

.  

FOOT RELEASE LEVER 

The 

K-Foot Release Lever

 is an optional feature that makes it easier to slightly 

rotate the 

D-Pull Bar

 in order to disengage the 

L-Pull Bar Locks

 [Fig 4C] without 

bending over. Before installing, position the 

K-Foot Release Lever 

12" to 20" 

from the end of the

 D-Pull Bar 

on the side closest to the

 Pull Chain. 

Attach the

 

K-Foot Release Lever 

to the

 D-Pull Bar 

using two

 Q - #6 x 3/8” (9mm) Phillips 

Panhead Screws. 

INSTALLING SIDE RAILS 

Install the 

L-Pull Bar Locks 

at the bottom of each 

B-Inside Rail

.  Be sure that the 

L-Pull Bar Lock

 engages the 

D-Pull Bar

 as shown in image [Fig 4C]. Slide 

B-Inside 

Rails

 onto the tabs protruding from the 

F and G-Cassette End Caps

, with the 

shorter pile to the inside [Fig 4D]. Use an 1/8” drill bit and first drill through both 
sides of the 

B-Inside Rails

 where they are to be fastened. Next, using a 3/8” bit, 

drill through the outside face only. This will allow you to snap the 

N-Screw Cover 

Caps

 in place. Square and attach 

B-Inside Rails

 with 

P - #8 x 1”(25mm) Phillips 

Panhead Screws

N-Screw Cover Caps

Using the height adjustment wheel on the 

L-Pull Bar Lock

, adjust the height to 

the appropriate level so that it easily engages the 

D-Pull Bar

.  When correctly 

adjusted the latching and unlatching should be smooth and easy. 

Shorter Pile

That’s it. Enjoy your new retractable screen!
