General information
sundrape
®
roller blinds are maintenance-
free sun protection products with a
longlasting working life for dry indoor
rooms.
The professional mounting
according to our mounting instruc-
tions
as well as a skilled use and ope-
ration are necessary conditions for the
optical well-appearance and impec-
cable functioncality of these products.
sundrape
®
roller blinds are custom-
made products and therefore cannot be
exchanged nor taken back. Every
custom-made roller blind is tested ex
works by our control service and is
checked on optimal function, comple-
teness of the attached accessories and
cleanliness. The operating elements
allow an infinitely variation of drapery
position.
Textile draperies are not static and
therefore cannot be completely even
and wrinkle-free surfaces. Roller blinds
have to be mounted exactly horizon-
tally and the side guiding profiles must
be mounted exactly vertically. Please
follow the special mounting instruc-
tions for our sundrape
®
products as
described.
sundrape
®
roller blinds are to be ope-
rated exclusively by the correspon-
ding, attached sundrape
®
operating
elements.
There will be no warranty for
consequential damages due to inproper
treatment or operation.
Generally, the draperies are to be rolled
down only to the extent of the window
height. An exceeding rolling down will
lead to an inversion of the winding
sense of the roller blind tube. This may,
especially in case of roller blinds with
headbox and side guiding, result in
serious, permanent damages of the dra-
pery as for example wrinkles or upset-
ting deformation. The drapery may also
get stuck or come off from the roller
blind tube.
Generally, avoid obstacles in the win-
ding area of the roller blind as they may
cause damages of the drapery. A sloped
rolling up of the blind is damaging the
selvage of the drapery.
There is no guarantee for any kind of
soils, especially on draperies, that are
evidently not caused by production or
delivery.
When cleaning the blind, the contact of
the blind drapery with chemical,
solvent-based agents has to be strictly
avoided because they may cause spots
or damages.
You may weep off light soils of the rol-
ler blind drapery carefully with a damp
towel without cleaning agent. Do not
rub because damages in colour or tex-
tile structure may result. Remove dust
by means of an appropriate brush.
Never use lubricants like oil or grease!
Side pull roller blinds
Side pull roller blinds can continuously
be rolled up or down by pulling the late-
ral ball chain or cord. The drapery is
automatically stopped by a stopping
mechanism which is inserted in the dri-
ving gear. This stopping mechanism
avoids an uncontrolled rolling down of
the drapery. Don't pull at the bottom
bar, this may cause damage to the stop-
ping mechanism!
Multiple operating processes in close
turns may affect the stopping mecha-
nism due to heating up and are hence
to be avoided.
Operating chains must bear two stopper
plates for the final positions on top and
at the bottom. They must be placed in a
way that an overturn of the bottom bar
towards the roller blind tube resp. the
headbox is excluded. The bottom final
position must be determined in a way
that the drapery is freely suspended
without getting stuck. Missing stopper
plates may lead to damages through
rude and uncontrolled rolling up of the
bottom bar against the headbox and
may so damage the drive unit or the dra-
pery. Furtheron, the bottom bar may
clamp into the headbox.
The ball chains are to be pulled vertical-
ly resp. slightly sloped. Avoid to pull too
sloped, in this case, the chain must bear
too sharp deviations and may cause
unnecessary noise when operating the
blind.
The operating speed should be regular
and correspond to the kind of drapery.
Circulating chains and cords must be
kept away from small children.
Electric roller blinds
Any kind of electric installation work
at 230 V power supply must general-
ly be carried out through authorized
professional staff according to the cor-
responding national regulations for
electric installations.
Any kind of installation work to be exe-
cuted at idle supply lines only and in
absolute compliance with wiring and
connecting diagrams of the motors!
Take care that supply lines and cables
do not affect the drapery when rolling
up or down.
For any kind of material or personal
damages which may result from non-
compliance with these instructions, gua-
rantee is explicitly excluded. Any kind of
consequential damages on systems and
installations are also excluded from the
manufactuer’s guarantee.
Center pull roller blinds
sundrape
®
soft roller blinds and skylight
roller blinds are cord operated by means
of a pulling device or by handle, fixed
directly at the bottom bar. In both cases,
the operation elements are fixed in the
middle of the bottom bar, either directly
at the bottom bar (handle) or with a
cord (pulling device).
Unwind soft roller blind until desired
position. It will stop automatically. To
wind up the blind, a slight pull will de-
activate the stopping mechanism again
and the blind rolls up automatically.
Skylight roller blinds are operated with
tensioned spring by pulling the pulling
device downwards and insertion of the
bottom bar into lateral supports. To
wind up, remove bottom bar from late-
ral supports and wind up drapery back
to blind tube.
