When calculating two or more shades which will share a bracket, the first shade is calculated as a single shade (A-B=C) and
subsequent shades in the line will need an additional deduction, calculated as (A-X= C). Calculations are based on starting from the
farthest left or right hand shade and calculating in order across the line. Note: bracket positions on subsequent shared shades will all
follow the positioning of the first single shade shared bracket, ...ie, Clutches on shared bracket shades must be on the same side as
the first shade in the line.

the pulley. Rotate the pulley clockwise, one tooth at a time, all the
way around to the other side.
A loop will remain in front of the
guard. Pull on the cord from
behind the guard until the the
entire loop falls behind the guard.
4. IF USING 2 inch or 2.5 inch TUBE, INSERT ADAPTERS. The adapters must be inserted into the tube before the clutch and
pin end are inserted.
5. IF USING PLASTIC BEAD CHAIN, POSITION THE PLASTIC CONNECTOR
AS THE UPPER SHADE STOP.
Decide which end of the tube you want to put the clutch in. Keep track of which is the “clutch end”
of the tube. Roll the shade all the way up and lay it on the work table so it looks like this
, and
not like this
Point the clutch into its end of the tube and pull on the upper chain until the connector touches the
clutch firmly. (Do not attach the lower plastic stop, or any stops on metal bead chain, until installing the shade.)
6. INSERT THE CLUTCH AND PIN END INTO THE TUBE.
IMPORTANT: To remove the clutch or pin end from the tube, gently twist a screwdriver in one or more of
the slots between the plastic part and the metal tube. DO NOT PULL the parts out; you might break them.
Note: The removal of clutches and pin ends can degrade the fit of the components in the tube.

Note: If sharing a standard bracket
between two shades, bracket can
only be shared by a clutch and a
pin end, not clutch-to-clutch or pin
end-to-pin end. If sharing an
intermediate bracket it can only be shared by two pin ends

INSTALL THE SHADE
a.
Put the spring loaded pin end
into the round hole of the
bracket.
b. Keeping the pin end secured
in its bracket, insert the hooks
on the clutch straight into the two
slots in the bracket. Once the two
hooks are through the slots, gently
pull down on the clutch until the two
hooks have locked securely to
the bracket. The bottom of the
clutch should point straight down.
Note: If sharing a bracket between two
shades, bracket can only be shared by a
clutch and a pin end, not a clutch-to-clutch or
pin end to pin end.

USE THE CONTROL CORD OR BEAD CHAIN TO OPERATE THE SHADE.
Pulling gently on the cord in one direction raises the shade; pulling it in the other direction lowers it.
6.
ATTACH STOPS TO A CONTROL CORD THATʼS MADE OF BEAD CHAIN.
On metal bead chain, attach a metal stop ball that is at least 5/16" (8mm) in diameter, so that it touches the clutch when the shade is in the
fully raised position.
For metal or plastic bead chain, lower the shade to its fully lowered position, and attach the appropriate metal stop or plastic connector next so
that it touches the clutch, this prevents the shade from being lowered beyond that point.

4. SNAP TOGETHER
Align the latches and slots of the front assembly and the back cover and snap together.
Make sure the loop is not pinched by the two mating parts. Pull on cord/chain to test
that the cord/bead chain does not move and is locked. Note the button must be out to
lock loop.
5. INSTALL MOUNTING BRACKET
Determine which direction the mounting bracket will face relative to the Tension Device.
Make sure the Tension Device will be snapped into the mounting stand in the same
correct direction. Before attaching Tension Device to the base, measure and mark the
location in the window where the tension device will be mounted. Mount the base in
position without the tension device attached. Position the Tension Device on the window frame or the wall so that the Tension Device and control cord/chain does not
interfere with raising or lowering the shade. The Tension Device should be installed
so that cord/bead chain is taut without stretching or pulling down on it.
Stretching the cord/bead chain will cause excessive wear. Do not twist or cross
the control cord/bead chain. Holding the Tension Device upright, and in position, as
shown, insert and secure the two screws through holes in the mounting bracket. The
mounting screws must be secured into a solid surface or molly.
6. MATE TENSION DEVICE TO MOUNTING
BRACKET
Once the tension device is snapped to the base it
is designed not to be removed.
Press center round button exposing the four
latching legs and press into the corresponding
thru-hole of the mounting bracket stand until they
latches snap and lock to the mounting stand. The
loop should now pass freely through the Tension
Device.

2. INSTALL BEAD CHAIN: For ease of installation, a bead chain drop
length of at least 50 inches should be used to allow the chain to clear the
spring assist assembly. If a shorter chain is ever required, the open loop
should be installed into the spring assist before the bead chain is connected.

determine the number of rotations
you must pre-wind into the spring. Holding the
clutch as shown in figures 3A & 3B, pull on
the rear chain so the housing and spring
assist assembly rotates in the direction of the
arrow on the label.
Count complete revolutions corresponding to
the the pre-rotations as determined by the software.
One pre-rotation is a full rotation of the label
returning to the original position

4. INSTALL SOUND REDUCING FOAM
On shade tubes with internal features (keyed tube), the end of
the Spring Assist mechanism may hit the key while the tube is
rotating causing a knocking sound. To prevent
this it is recommended that approximately a 6
inch (150 mm) section of common plumbing
hot/cold water pipe insulation foam be taped
to the black sleeve on the end of the Spring
Assist. (Use foam sleeve that fits 1” (25mm)
pipe. Note: The foam sleeve must be secured
to the black PVC sleeve only and should
never to be attached to the spring, white spring-retainer or square metal shaft.

6. NOTES
A.) Reverse (Front Roll) Shades
Assembly instructions above assume a standard back roll roller shade. For reverse (front roll) shades use a right-hand
spring assist on the left side or a left-hand spring assist on the right side. Pre-rotations should still follow the direction
of the arrow on the label.
B.) Resetting Spring
If it ever becomes necessary to reset the spring assist tension setting before adding additional pre-rotations
you need to first return the spring assist to the factory zero tension setting.

Cord Guard
How to tell if spring is at zero tension: Hold the spring assist by the housing with one hand
and with the other move the cord guard and release. If the cord guard stays in its position the
spring is at zero tension, if the cord guard snaps back, adjustment is needed. Use the bead
chain to counter rotate the spring in the opposite direction of the arrow. Test and adjust until
spring is at zero tension. Note: Illustration shown for right-hand spring assists, left hand spring
assists will snap back in the opposite direction.

Pin End Spring Assist Fabrication
Pin End Spring Assist (PESA) works with manual or motorized systems on shades weighing 16 lbs (7,2 kg) or less.These instructions are for manual
clutch
systems. The PESA does not require any pre-rotations or any type of set-up; simply install and operate as you would with a standard pin
end. There is a difference between which PESA to select depending on if you are fabricating a STANDARD ROLL SHADE (fabric rolls off on window
side of tube) or a REVERSE ROLL SHADE (fabric rolls off of window side of tube)

3.) INSERT INTO TUBE
PESAʼs should only be inserted when shade is rolled up. The PESA is designed so that when the shade is lowered, the downward operation of the
shade put tension in the spring. The starting point for tensioning is when the shade is fully raised.
NOTE: If the PESA is inserted in any other configuration failure of the PESA may occur.
4.) INSTALL AS USUAL
The shade is installed as usual. Shade should be fully raised when installed.
Note: The use of stop balls is recommended.

RollEase Link System Roller Shade
Fabrication - Installation Instructions
INSIDE MOUNT
The RollEase Link System is designed so that two or more shades may be
operated simultaneously using one control mechanism. The number of shades
driven is only limited by the lifting capacity of the clutch or motor. (No single
shade should be more than 20 lbs Link Bracket weight capacity is 40 lbs from
the 2 shades hanging on either side) To minimize light gap deductions for each
shade, individual component measurements are listed in the chart below.
1. CALCULATE THE EXACT WIDTH OF A SHADE - DIMENSION “C”
(Cut dimension)
or
OUTSIDE MOUNT
A
A
Measure inside the frame.
Measure across the from first
bracket to last bracket.
(2) Shades
Use the formula: C = A - (K + 1/2 L) - (1/2 L + P)
Shade #1, deduct the the amount of space taken up by the clutch (K) and 1/2
(L) the distance taken up the Link bracket.
Shade #2, deduct 1/2 (L) and the space taken up by the Pin End (P)
3+ Shades
Use the formula: C = A - (K + 1/2 L) - (1/2 L + 1/2 L) - (1/2 L + P)
First Shade: deduct the the amount of space taken up by the clutch (K) on one
side and 1/2 (L); the distance taken up the Link bracket on the other side.
Middle Shade(s), deduct 1/2 (L) the distance of the link bracket on one side and
1/2 (L) the distance of the link bracket on the other side.
Repeat for as many shades that share a link bracket on both sides.
LAST
FIRST
C = A - (K + 1/2 L) - (1/2 L + P)
Last Shade : deduct 1/2 (L) the distance of the link bracket on one side and the
and the space taken up by the Pin End (P) on the other side.
For simplification one may elect to take the largest
deduction for that clutch type (see “ONE CUT” in chart )
and make equal deductions for all shades being linked.
The differences between the smallest possible deduction
for one shade versus the largest required is often smaller
than a fabricators ability to accurately cut tube and
shadecloth. Exact deductions for specific shade position is
provided for those fabricators requiring the
smallest possible light gap acheiveable.

TWO SHADE INSTALLATION
While the ends of the shades that are being linked are
supported, insert the clutch and pin end into their respective brackets. This will cause the shades to bow down in
a wide “V”-like shape, but it will not be enough to break
the clutch or pin end. If the shades are large this will
require two installers. The shades require support and
should not be left to hang by the clutch and pin end
alone. (See Figure 7)

Slide the assembly up into the link bracket making sure
