Track - Mount the installation clips (tab to rear) to the<br />

inside of the casing, or ceiling, a minimum of 1 1/4"<br />

from the window or wall to allow the vanes to tilt open<br />

properly. The end clips should be attached no more<br />

than 4" in from each end of the track. Any centre<br />

supports required should be spaced evenly between<br />

the ends.<br />

Valance - The valance is attached directly to the<br />

mounting surface (casing or ceiling), “sandwiched”<br />

between the surface and the mounting clips as<br />

illustrated. If the front surface of the valance is to be<br />

flush with side casings or wall, you will need a<br />

minimum of 4 ½" window recess.<br />

Fabric Weights or Bottom Chain<br />

<strong>Installation</strong> of Fabric Weights with Clip and Chain - Insert a weight into the hem of<br />

each vane. Start at front or back at one of the end vanes, and snap a clip into the hole<br />

on the edge of the weight. Snap the next clip to the same edge of the bottom<br />

weight in the next vane, and carry on to the other end of the track. Do the same<br />

thing with the other side of the vanes. If track is a centre split, cut front and back<br />

chains between centre vanes to allow split.<br />

PVC Chain - Thread supplies chain through keyhole at bottom of each vane leaving<br />

enough chain between to allow vanes to hang straight.<br />

Self-Aligning Vane Hangers<br />

Your track is equipped with a self-aligning mechanism. In the event that a vane becomes misaligned, use<br />

the following procedure to realign all vanes.<br />

1. Rotate the vanes and apply slight pressure at the closed position (you should hear a ratchet sound).<br />

2. Rotate the vanes in the opposite direction, also applying slight pressure at the closed position.
