Congratulations on the purchase of your Coolaroo® Easy Release™ Outdoor Roller Shade. Whether you choose to install it in your apartment or home
on a window, balcony, patio, porch or deck, simply follow the directions included here to create a safer, more enjoyable environment with increased
privacy.
Your Easy Release™ Outdoor Roller Shade is fully assembled and only needs to be installed before it can be used. Before beginning the steps below,
please take a moment to review the parts list you will need to hang the shade.
Your Easy Release™ Outdoor Roller Shade can either be hung from the top of a surface (i.e. window frame, Fig 1) or side mounted on the inside surface
of a wall, patio or porch (Fig 5). Regardless of how you choose to install the shade, the installation instructions remain the same.

INSTALL THE MOUNTING BRACKETS
1.
Using the mounting bracket as your guide, mark the holes where the
screws will go with a pencil.
Note:
Set the distance between the brackets about 1/8” wider than
the width of the top head rail (roller) to allow for the plastic component
and set screw ends. Also be sure the brackets on both ends are level
and in line with each other.
2. Use a 3/16” drill bit to pre-drill the holes. The optional wall anchors,
which can be inserted into the pre-drilled holes are included if you are
mounting the shade on a material other than wood.
3. Mount the installation brackets to the ceiling or wall using the wood
screws provided. (Fig.1)
4. Next, position the shade so that the set screw component is on the
right. (Fig.2)
Note:
You will also want to position the head rail (roll) so that the set
screw is facing you. This will make it easier for you to loosen the set
screw as described in Step 9 below.
5. Adjust the length of the exposed fabric so that the bottom rail is
between 4” to 6” (10 – 15 cm) below head rail (roller). This will be the
top position when the shade is fully retracted.
