Ease of Operation
One of the important advantages of Hunter Douglas window shadings
over traditional soft window coverings is its ease of operation.
A continuous cord loop, which works on the principle of a pulley,
rotates a clutch to raise or lower the shading or shade.
From the fully raised position, pulling down on the front half
of the cord loop lowers the shading. Continuing to pull on the cord,
in the fully lowered position, the rear of the fabric shifts back
to within 7/8" of the window or mounting surface.
The covering is raised by pulling on the rear of the continuous
cord loop. The fabric first moves forward, away from the window,
and then rolls up to conceal itself inside the headrail. When the
shading is fully raised, stops on the end caps of both the headrail
and bottom rail prevent further movement.
Adjustability
Coverings should wind evenly and not skew to one side. If skewing
does occur:
- Ensure headrail was installed level; shim if necessary.
- Adjust placement of weight in bottom rail, 1" at a time,
toward side where fabric is gathering.
