MOUNT THE SIDE TRACK
Inside Mount
Attach the side tracks to the inside of the window using the pre-drilled holes on
N
alternate sides of the track centerline.
For sloped installations, align the wide flange with the front edge of the
N
window opening.
For vertical installations, align the wide flange flush with the edge of the opening.
N
Make sure the rails are centered within the side tracks.
N
Make sure the side tracks are parallel by measuring the distance between them at
N
the top and bottom of the window.
If the side tracks are more than
N
1
/
4
" off of parallel, use wooden shims under the
mounting screw locations, starting at the ends of the side tracks.

MOUNT THE INSTALLATION BRACKETS
Bracket Placement
Position installation brackets so their centerlines are 4
N
1
/
2
"
from the ends of the
headrail.
If your shade has a support cord, position a third bracket 1
N
"
to the left of the
center of the headrail.
Measure and mark all bracket centerlines.
N
For outside mount applications, use the installation brackets to mount the
N
anchor rail.
For inside mount applications, attach the anchor rails directly to the sill
N
with screws.
Inside Mount Applications
The depth required for a fully recessed mount depends upon the application.
NOTE:
Add the dimension of obstructions such as window cranks or handles
to the minimum depth.
Use one mounting screw to attach each installation
N
bracket to the top sill of the window opening.
Place the screws on the marked centerlines and align
N
the brackets so their front edges are recessed.
If the anchor rail does not have mounting holes,
N
space installation brackets on the bottom sill the same
distances as used for the top sill. Attach the anchor
rail to the brackets.
Use the rear hole of the bracket if the mounting depth
N
is between
1
/
2
" and 1".
