and link panels together. The retractable coupler shaft has three distinct positions: fully extended,
intermediate, and fully retracted.
1. To retract the coupler shaft from fully extended to the intermediate position, grasp the roller
with one hand while rotating the metal ring counterclockwise
approximately ½ of a turn with the other; this will leave the shaft extended approximately ½"
2. To retract the coupler shaft fully, rotate the metal ring counterclockwise (as viewed facing the
coupler assembly) an additional 1/3 turn.
3. To lock shaft in place when extended, rotate metal ring clockwise ¼ turn.
Please Note: There is no retractable shaft in
the idler end assembly on the idler end shade
. This idler assembly
(furthest from the operator)
utilizes a sliding pin and retainer clip.
Section 5.2 - Operator-end Bracket Assembly
1. Before mounting shades, verify measurements on the card provided with the shade, and ensure the brackets are installed at the correct width.
2. Measure and mark wall, jamb, or ceiling for placement of mounting brackets. Mark a level line across all windows to ensure a level installation.
Mark the outer edges of the operator- and idler-end brackets, and the center locations of the coupler brackets. Locations are determined by:
A. Operator-end panel width;
B. Intermediate panel width
C. Idler-end panel width.
3. Mount the operator-end bracket assembly
. Ensure the outside edge is aligned with
bracket types)
the marked location.
Please Note: Installer is responsible for selecting
mounting hardware appropriate for site conditions.
Caution: Wear gloves that are flexible enough to
adjust the metal wheel but strong enough to prevent
scrapes from surrounding metal or other surfaces.
Section 5.3 - First
(Operator-end)
1. If desired, the proper location of the coupler bracket assembly can be verified. Otherwise, proceed to step 2.
A. Installer #1 attaches
the operator end to the
operator-end bracket.
2. Install first coupler bracket assembly to mounting surface.
3. Ensure the operator-end fabric/roller assembly's coupler shaft is completely retracted
(see "Operating the Retractable Shaft" and Fig.5)
4. Raise first rear/upper fabric/roller assembly into place.
Installer #1 inserts operator end of fabric/roller assembly into operator-end bracket.
Installer #2 lifts the coupler end up next to the coupler bracket assembly, then extends
the coupler shaft to the intermediate position by rotating the ring clockwise 1/3 of a turn
(see "Operating the Retractable Shaft" and Fig. 5)
installation of the next panel.
5. Connect power so the shade can be operated and adjusted.
6. Operate the shade to ensure proper fabric tracking and to set up and down limits
on limit adjustment and field adjustments)
7. Raise shade to upper limit.
(Requires two (2) installers)
Caution:.Installation of this product requires two people.
Caution: Before beginning installation, practice extending and retracting the coupler shaft in a fabric/roller assembly, following
instructions in the "Operating the Retractable Coupler Shaft" section below.
Caution: All motors should be tested and limits set using test cord before electrician wires shade.

Please Note: These instruction steps are for installing brackets one at a time. Brackets may also all
be installed at the same time, prior to installing roller/fabric assemblies. If brackets are installed first,
please be certain of measurements and locations. For best results, assemble the unit on a flat, clean
surface and verify measurements before attaching brackets.
