SHADE DOES NOT ROLL STRAIGHTAll shades are hung and inspected in the factory to ensure a straight roll. All spring roller shades should be pulled from the center of the bottom of the shade. Pulling the shade from the sides can cause the shade to roll crooked and possible damage the material. Masking tape used on the roller will act as a shim. Use the following instructions to correct.

If shade veers toward the right (Fig. A) lower com-pletely and place a 4” strip of masking tape on the roller on the left side. Repeat as necessary until a straight roll is achieved.

If shade veers toward the left (Fig. B) lower shade completely and place a 4” strip of masking tape on the right side. Repeat as necessary until a straight roll is achieved.

BACK


Mount the Shade• With the clutch bottom in the down position, slip the clutch end of the

shade onto the clutch tab on the clutch-side mounting bracket.• The lower tab, used to secure the cover, goes between the bead

chains.• Rotate the T-hook in the rotator-side mounting bracket in the open

position.• Position the rotator pin on the shade into the center opening on the

rotator-side mounting bracket.• Rotate the T-hook, on the rotator-side mounting bracket, to the closed

position. The handle should be nearly straight down.

Attach the Side Channels• Lower the shade slightly when you mount each side channel to fit the

shade onto the top of the channel.• Align the outer edge of the side channels with the outside of the

brackets. The mounting holes will be on the rear face of the side channels, with the larger access holes on the front side. (Room side)

• Hold the top of each side channel snug against the bracket, and mark through the side channel’s mounting holes to determine where to drill the pilot holes.

• After marking all the holes on each side, measure the side-to-side distance between them. The distance between the top two holes and the bottom two holes should be equal.

• Drill pilot holes approximately 3/8” deep using a 3/32” drill bit. • Use the screws provided to attach the side channels to the mounting

surface.

Attach the Bottom Channel• Align the bottom of the channels and mount it with screws provided.• Screw through the side of the bottom channel when attaching it to

the molding or wall with an outside mount; or screw down through the bottom of the channel when attaching it to the sill or casement with an inside mount.

Install the Side Channel Plugs• Side channel plugs are include for outside mounted shades. Cover

the access holes in the side channels with the provided plugs, push-ing them in until they are firmly seated.

Shade RemovalRemove the Front/Bottom CoverRaise shade completely before removing. Damage to a blockout shade can easily occur if they are not in the full up position. • Remove the front/bottom cover of the fascia by pulling down on the

bottom of the cover, near the mounting brackets, to release it from the tabs on the mounting brackets.

• Rotate the cover and remove it.

Remove the Shade• Rotate the T-hook on the rotator-side mounting bracket to the open

position. • Lift the rotator pin out off the center opening in the rotator-side mount-

ing bracket. • Swing the rotator pin end of the shade out of the bracket, lowering the

shade on that end as little as possible fro the next step.• Carefully pull the shade from the clutch tab on the clutch-side mount-

ing bracket.


Install the Cord GuideThe cord guide reduces the hazards of strangulation and entanglement of children and pets by limiting the access to the cord control. Anchor the cord guide to the window frame or wall. • Lower the shade. • Hold the cord guide upright as shown in the picture.Slide chain into the cord guide. • Position the cord guide on the window frame or wall so that the cord guide and control chain do not interfere with raising and lowering the shade. The cord guide should be installed without stretching or pulling down on the control chain. Do not twist or cross the control chain. • Holding the cord guide upright, and in position as shown, insert and secure the screw through the hole. The mounting screw must be secured into a solid surface or wall fastener.

MOUNT THE BRACKETS• Clutch installation brackets are universal and can be used for inside, outside, ceiling, and reverse roll • mounting.• If the clutch is on the right side, as shown in drawing above, attach brackets to window frame, mold-ing,

wall or ceiling. • If the clutch is on the left reverse the bracket position. • Make sure the brackets are mounted level or the shade will roll crooked.• Install brackets against a flat mounting surface so they are not angled to the inside or outside.

INSTALL THE SHADE• Push the clutch straight onto the blade of the clutch

bracket. The bottom of the clutch where chain comes • out should always point straight down.• Lower the lug on the end plug onto the “V” of the locking • bracket.• Turn lock on bracket until the lug is enclosed.• The roller should fit securely in the brackets with just a little

play.

Occasionally during shipping, the spring in the roller may loose tension. Use the following instructions to adjust the tension. Window shade Spring Roller Crank #10-781WSR on page 20 of Lafayette Installation Tools and Supplies may also be purchased for tightening the spring.


When the shade rolls too fast, the spring is too tight. To loosen:

Draw shade about 18” and remove from brackets.

Roll up shade by hand and replace in brackets. Repeat until proper tension is reached.

Lower shade all the way down and re-move from brackets.

Unroll shade about 18” and replace in brackets. Repeat until proper tension is reached.

If shade veers toward the right (Fig. A) raise shade completely and place a 4” strip of masking tape on the roller on the left side. Repeat as necessary until a straight roll is achieved.

If shade veers toward the left (Fig. B) raise shade completely and place a 4” strip of masking tape on the right side. Repeat as necessary until a straight roll is achieved.

Standard InstallationOutside Mount1. Begin by unpacking the product to insure all necessary parts are present.2. Transfer and center the shade's width onto the opening, mark the outside and bottom edges. See illustra-tion if needed.3. Measure in approx. 4 1/2" from each mark to determine the two end bracket locations. These mark the cen-ter and top of your brackets. An appropriate wall anchor may be required depending on the mounting surface and weight of the shade.**NOTE: Always place the bracket on the shade to check for hardware or other obstructions that may interfere with shade operation adjust bracket location accordingly.4. Secure the brackets to the wall (using 1 1/2" screws) and center the shade on the brackets. Finally, secure the shade to the brackets (using 1 1/2" screws). Remember, if using "New York" brackets, these are designed to fit through the slot cut into the Genesis headrail. Using an awl, carefully punch a hole through the fabric covering the headrail to eliminate any possibility of ruining the fabric as the screws are tightened. 5. Check for smooth operation of the shade. (See back page) If the shade binds, all hardware and lift cords should be clear of brackets or other obstructions.
