Interior Solar Roller Shade Installation Instructions
Skyline Skyline Fabrication 1. CALCULATE THE EXACT CUT WIDTH OF A SINGLE SHADE - DIMENSION “C” A. Measure dimension (“A”), the distance between the outside of the brackets INSIDE MOUNT or A OUTSIDE MOUNT A Measure inside the frame B. Subtract dimension ("B"), the amount of room taken up by the clutch, pin end and brackets. Measure across the brackets A CLUTCH MODEL DIMENSION B DIMENSION “X” SINGLE SHADE SHARED BRACKET B X SL-10 or SL-15 SL-20 SL-20 (2” adapters) SL-30 / SLG-400 SL-30 / SLG-400 (2” adapters) 7/8” 1 1/16” 1 1 1 15/16” 1 3/16” 1 5/16” 1 3/8” 1 7/16” 3/16” 3/16” 5/16” Use the formula: A - B = C For example: If measurement "A" is 38", and you're using a SL-20 clutch, from the chart "B" is 1 1/16"...so: 38" - 1 1/16" = 36 15/16"... DIMENSION "C" = 36 CUT BOTH SHADE CLOTH AND TUBE TO DIMENSION "C". 15/16" 2. OPTION: SHARING A BRACKET 1 A-B = C 2 A-X = C 3 4 A-X = C A-X = C 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. 3. INSTALL THE BEAD CHAIN OR CONTROL CORD INTO THE CLUTCH. 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.

Rev: May 5, 2009 TECHNICAL Push a loop up from behind the guard. Firmly push the cord clockwise against a tooth edge, until the pulley moves, trapping the cord in Skyline Skyline Installation 1. MOUNT THE BRACKETS. Attach the brackets to the window frame, window molding, wall or ceiling, as shown. TO THE INSIDE OF THE WINDOW FRAME TO THE WALL OR FRONT OF THE WINDOW MOLDING TO THE CEILING OR TOP OF THE WINDOW FRAME Brackets are universal so clutch may be mounted on either side. 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 2. 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. 3. INSTALL THE BRACKET COVERS Bracket covers slide over the bracket until snapped into position. 4. INSTALL THE TENSION DEVICE See details page SL22 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.

Skyline Instructions: RollEase WCMA - ANSI 6.5 Compliant Tension Device 1. MOUNT SHADE IN WINDOW shade should be mounted as usual. 2. CHOOSE TENSION DEVICE “Small” for D-30, D-40 continuous polyester control cord loop, or continuous bead chain loop (no stops or connectors. “Large” for bead chain loop WITH connectors or stop balls 3. MATE TENSION DEVICE WITH CONTROL LOOP Press the center round button on the tension device which exposes the pulley on the opposite side. Hold the tension device by the outside cover. Wrap the loop around the pulley. Release the center post which will trap the loop. Be sure the control cord/chain exits the channels at the narrow end as shown. Exit Channels 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.

SELECT CORRECT PARTS: Using the drop/weight chart, select the spring assist and tube required for your project. Select Left or Right hand operation as you must use a different spring assist for each. Assumes standard (back roll) roller shade. For reverse (front-roll) shades see notes below. Clutch Actuator T GH RI LEFT-HAND spring assist operation has a BLUE label on the spring assist housing. The RIGHT-HAND spring assist has a RED label. Sleeve End Cap 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. Left or Right Hand Indicator label with Pre-wind Direction Square Rod 3. PRE-WIND SPRING: Using the Spring Figure 3A Assist Pre-Rotation Calculator CD (part # SACD), or software downloaded from our web site: www.rollease.com/springassist.htm 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 Figure 3B “Left” Blue Label Pre-Rotate in direction of arrow “Right” Red Label Pre-Rotate in direction of arrow 5. INSTALL INTO TUBE: With the shade in the rolled up position, slide the pre-rotated spring assist into the tube until the housing on the clutch engages and and is fully seated in the tube.

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. Skyline Spring Assist Fabrication 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. Housing Stays put, at zero TECHNICAL RIGHT Snaps back, not at zero RIGHT Move Cord Guard and release RIGHT Once the spring has returned to zero tension, use the pre-rotation software and pre-wind the spring assist according the requirements of the new application. RIGHT 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.

Rev: May 5, 2009 Skyline 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) 1-1/4 Tube Maximum shade weight shade: 8 lbs (3,6 kg) Maximum Drop: Max drop 96 inches (243 cm) (or 16 tube revolutions) 1-1/2 Tube Maximum shade weight shade: 16 lbs (7,2 kg) Maximum Drop: Max drop 116 inches (295 cm) (or 16 tube revolutions) Note: Different fabrics roll and unroll at different rates depending on the fabric thickness, therefore maximum drop length is a provided as a guideline, 16 tube revolutions maximum is a precise figure. 1.) FABRICATE SHADE PESA does not change the light gap of a shade and therefore deductions remain the same as with regular 1-1/4 inch (32mm) and 1-1/2 inch (38mm) pin ends. 2.)

Shown: Standard Roll with RIGHT HAND OPERATION = PESA on the LEFT 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.

Cut the external hem bar strip and the external hem bar to the same width of the fabric. 2.) Peel off the protective cover to expose the adhesive of the hem bar strip. Apply the hem bar strip level to the bottom edge of the fabric. 3.) Fold the fabric once over the hem bar strip, wrapping the strip inside of the fabric. Fold once again to create a thick enough wrap of fabric that will be larger than the top slit opening of the hem bar. 5.) Slide the hem bar all the way on so that it is even on both sides. 6.) Slide on the end caps cut sides up and attach with the screws provided. Note: External hem bar end caps take up less space than the clutch and pin end, therefore no deductions are required. End caps will protrude very slightly beyond the edge of the fabric but fit well within the light gap area. 4.) Slide the external hem bar over the folded fabric wrapped hem bar Strip. Make sure the wrapped hem bar strip is inside the channel.

Rev: May 5, 2009 TECHNICAL External Hem Bar End Caps Skyline 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) Figure 7 Slide the assembly up into the link bracket making sure the curved edge of the bearing faces upward. (See Figure 8) Figure 8 Skip ahead to Step 11 9. THREE OR MORE SHADE INSTALLATION When installing more than two shades, all tubes must be connected prior to locking them into place in the link brackets. While the ends of the shades that are being linked are supported, insert the clutch and pin end into Figure 9 their respective brackets. This will cause the shades to bow down in a wide “V”-like shape. If the shades are large this will require multiple installers. The shades require support and Figure 10 should not be left to hang by the clutch and pin end alone. (See Figure 9) It is not possible to install one shade at a time; the clutch and pin end must be inserted before all tubes in the assembly are simultaneously lifted into position in the link brackets. 10. Slide the assembly upward and into the link brackets making sure the curved edge of the bearing faces upward. (See Figure 10) 12. Insert the leveling screw into the adjustable adapter. This screw serves as a locking mechanism as well as a height adjuster. It is not possible to remove the adjustable adapter with the leveling screw in place. (Figure 12) Figure 11 13. Once secured, use the grip wheel on the Infinite Adjuster to adjust the shade on the corresponding tube until it becomes level with the shade on the clutch tube. (Figure 13) Figure 13 Figure 12 TECHNICAL 11. Insert the adjustable adapter (open end facing downward) by applying pressure to the ends. The teeth of the adjustable adapter should engage the notches in the link bracket. The system is NOT locked at this point but CAN be supported by the adjustable adapter. (See Figure 11)
