| The easiest way to install the tensioner correctly is to
follow these basic steps.
Inside mount:
1. Locate the tensioner as close to the shade as possible without interfering with the fabric or bottom rail.
2. Hold the tensioner flat against the window frame.
3. Insert an awl, nail punch or small screwdriver into the
screw's mounting hole and pull it down at least 1/2" to release the lock
in the tensioner.
4. Mark this position for the screw to be installed into the
window frame.
Outside mount:
1. Attach the outside mount bracket to the cord tensioner.
2. Pull down on the bracket so the screw attaching the tensioner to
the brackets is at least 1/2" from the top of the slot in order to
release the lock in the tensioner.
3. Mark the locations of the bracket screw holes on the wall surface.
4. Make sure this position does not interfere with the operation
of the shade.
