studs/wires, you can use a stud finder, which lights up to show you the location of the stud or
warn you of electrical components that should be avoided.
To install Gear with screws, fasten your screws through the two holes in the Positioning Tool
and through the bracket. Tighten until secure.

B) Double-sided tape:
If your shades are heavy or take a lot of force to open/close, use the
mounting screws and double-sided tape when mounting onto drywall. If you are installing Gear
on metal or glass, use the double-sided tape and do not attempt installation with the screws.
To install Gear with the double-sided tape, first, make sure the holes on the tape are aligned
with the holes on the bracket. Next, peel off the yellow liner of the tape and apply it very
carefully to the face of the mounting bracket (side or back) that is against the wall. Finally, peel
the red liner of the tape off and firmly press the bracket against the wall for 10 seconds. Let the
tape cure for at least one hour to gain adhesive strength between surfaces.
ATTACH CHAIN OR CORD TO GEAR
Remove the Back Cover, slide your chain or cord onto the cogwheel and snap the cover closed.
To be safe, do not power on the device yet. Position Gear onto the mounting bracket from an
angle, making sure to line up the grooves in Gear with the lips on the mounting bracket. Pull the
device downwards until your chain is tensioned.
For metal or plastic chains or beaded cords, do not pull Gear down too tight as it may wear
