Adjust the lift cord tension by pulling the cord toward the center of the blinds and using pliers to turn the tension screw clockwise to tighten or counterclockwise to loosen. Test the lift cord tension by lifting the blinds to make sure they are at the desired tightness or looseness.
Take a fork and insert the probe between the tines of the fork. Turn the fork to tighten the internal spring...do it more than once so you will feel how much to tighten because overtightening is possible and is not useful. Then roll up the blind by hand and reinsert it into the window holders. It should work fine.
Step 1: If the blind is too loose, remove it from brackets and roll up by hand to increase tension. Step 2: Reinstall it back in the window and the process until desired tension is achieved. Step 3: If your roller blind is too tight or won't stay down, take it down. Step 4: Roll the fabric down halfway by hand.
Securely attach tension devices supplied with blinds and window coverings to the wall so children can't place the cord around their neck. Install a cleat or tie-down device up high on the wall and use it to keep cords out of reach.
Tear off a piece of tape and separate it from the paper backing. Wrap the tape tightly around your screw or bolt, pulling slightly to stretch the tape and pressing it on tightly. Wrap in the direction of the threads, about 2 times around. Press and hold the tape in place and tear off any excess.
Ground blinds come with stakes for securing the ground blind, but for extra security and if you're planning to leave the blind in one spot for the season, bring some rope and tie the blind down at all four corners. You can also use the rope as a way to add branches or brush to better conceal the blind around the edges.
Most likely the chain mechanism, responsible for raising the fabric, or the roller (the material is wound onto it) is damaged. There may also be damage to the fastening system, guide or cassette.
Most eyeglasses use screws located at the temple hinges on both sides. Using an optometric screwdriver or any small screwdriver that will fit the screws on your sunglasses, turn the screw clockwise until you feel some resistance. This will move the frames inward toward your head.
The string on blinds is typically referred to as a pull cord or lift cord. It helps to raise and lower the slats of the blind.
Roller Shades and Solar Shades, for instance, have no visible cords, as they are controlled by the roller in their headrail. Cellular Shades and Roman Shades, on the other hand, do have cords, but they are typically within or behind the material for minimal or no visibility.
They should be hand tightened and then another 1 or 2 turns, but no more. More turns will put too much pressure on the fitting and may crack it and cause a leak. The Tensile Stress created by tightening the fitting beyond hand-tight and 1 or 2 more turns will crack the female fittings.
