Position the cords.
■
➤
From the outside of the end plate, place the washer on the end of one cord into the first slot from the rear on the inside of
the end plate, as shown. Loop the cord behind the end plate back through the second slot from the front and pull it taut to
seat the washer.
■
➤
Cut the washer from the end of the other cord and tie the cord to the cord tensioner using a square knot. (There are two
cord tensioners in the headrail; one is a spare.) Trim the end of the cord to about
1
⁄
2
".
■
➤
Loop the cord from the tensioner around the second slot from the rear. The top of the loop must be the cord from the cord
tensioner. Be sure the cord is not twisted.
■
■
Remove slack from the cord by moving the cord tensioner away from the end plate it is looped around.
■
➤
If the tensioner must be moved more than one-third of the headrail width away from its end plate to remove slack, re-tie the
knot and trim the excess cord.
■
➤
Do not put tension on the cords at this time. Just remove the slack.
