What's This?

Straighten Out 
Your Bottom Line...

This new cam lock simplifies bottom rail adjustments for Silhouette® Top-Down/Bottom-up with TiltAnywhere™.

A new cam−lock height adjustment system has been introduced for the Silhouette Top−Down/Bottom−Up with TiltAnywhere™ product. This improvement is more user friendly by allowing for easier height adjustments in the consumer's home. By simply turning the cam−lock, the height cord is unlocked and adjustments can be made as shown below. 
To adjust the bottom rail: 

Tightly hold the end of the cord located on top of the bottom rail. NOTE : DO NOT let go of the cord. Releasing the cord may cause it to retract into the headrail.

 

Turn the cam lock located on the side of the end cap with a flat blade screwdriver a quarter turn counter clockwise. 

To adjust the shading drop, lightly push up or pull down on the bottom rail until it is in the desired position.
Turn the cam lock a quarter turn clockwise to lock. 

Repeat this process for the other side of the shading if needed. 

Check your adjustment by raising the shading completely. Make sure the shading raises evenly and the bottom rail is level. 

This method replaces the packet and cap knot that was previously necessary.
