Installation & Operating Instructions
Woven Shade Operation & Adjustment
Yarn and wood used on these fabrics have been specially selected. The wood slats retain the grain texture and irregularities inherent in natural wood of this type. The selection of pattern and yarns combines this natural wood with the most contemporary colors for a truly unique window fabric.
Shade Operation
Both Roman & Roll Up shades have the same basic hardware and operating procedure. Cords, whether installed on the left or right side have the same locking mechanism. (See illustration A). To raise the shade merely pull on the cord and release the cord when the shade is at the desired height. To lower the shade, pull the cord to the center of the shade with a slight tug. Then keeping tension on the cord at that angle slowly let the cord go up, thus lowering the shade. If the shade should bind, check the cord alignment over the pulley (under valance).
SHADE ADJUSTMENT & ALIGNMENT
Your shade has been carefully inspected and adjusted by the factory, but minor adjustments may be necessary once it has been installed. The yarns in your woven shade are flexible enough to permit minor adjustment horizontally and vertically for proper alignment on your window. If the bottom of your shade becomes uneven, merely pull down on either side to stretch the yard and align the shade.
If your shade doesn't lie flat against the wall or window, roll the shade tightly from the bottom and twist roll (illustration B) clockwise on one side, counter clockwise on the other, and this will align yarns and slats. Should a strand of yard slip off the edge of the shade, remove the strand from top to bottom - this will in no way affect the strength of the shade.
