Securing blind to bottom of window

5
If you want to secure the blind to the bottom of the window
(optional), the hole on the end of the bottom weight bar fits
into the retention plate (provided) at the base of the window.
Screw the plate securely to the window frame and then clip
into the bottom weight bar.

To shorten the blind drop height

6
NOTE: Before fitting you can custom fit the blind to the
correct height by follow the instructions below.
6.1 The height – when the blind is fully lowered there should
be no slats over lapping at the bottom of the blind. If over
lapping occurs you can remove slats to allow a custom fit.
6.2 Hold the blind at the desired location and allow it to fully
lower. In the open position the slats should be approximately
2cm apart.
NOTE: A good rule of thumb is to remove 8 slats for
every 150mm (6") you wish to shorten the blind by.
6.3 Lay blind on a flat surface and remove the caps on the
bottom weight bar. The caps cover the lift cords [ fig. 1 ] .
6.4 Cut lift cord 2cm above cap and remove. Pull the lift cord
from the bottom weight bar to allow it to slide out of the
ladder rung [ fig. 2 ] .
6.5 Count the number of slats you wish to remove. Pull the
lift cord from these slats to allow them to slide out of the
ladder rung and remove the required number of slats [ fig. 3 ] .
6.6 Remember to allow for the bottom weight bar to be
reinserted, then thread the lift cord back through the cap holes.
6.7 Knot lift cord directly beneath the bottom weight bar
and cut off excess cord [ fig. 4 ] . Allow one extra rung and cut
off excess ladder, now tuck remaining ladder into the bottom
weight bar cap holes. Then replace the caps [ fig. 5 ] .
6.8 After blind is shortened you may wish to adjust the pull
cord length. Remove the plastic cover over the knot and cut
off excess cord and then re-knot.
