Your user guide for Ziptrak
Spring-balanced operation
The blind should be hand-operated from the centre of the bottom bar. This ensures the material rolls evenly onto the top tube. The blind should always glide smoothly and easily along the track. You may find Ziptrak® spring-balanced blinds are a little tricky to operate during windy conditions due to the pressure of the wind on the blind material. Use your hand to push against the blind material to reduce this pressure and then operate the blind.
Motorised operation
Motorised blinds are operated by remote control and cannot be hand-operated and doing so may damage the blind. Care must be taken when operating motorised Ziptrak® blinds in windy conditions. They must be supervised whilst raising and lowering at all times.
Hardware maintenance
In dusty and seafront locations, approximately once a year you may wish to add lubricant to assist in the continued smooth operation of the blind. You must use silicone spray, such as food grade CRC 808. As a general rule cleaning should take place every six months. Carefully remove any loose surface deposits with a wet sponge. Use a soft brush (non abrasive) and a mild household
detergent (do not use solvents) in warm water, remove dust, salt and other deposits. Rinse off with clean fresh water.
Sunscreen Mesh
Sunscreen mesh fabric should be brushed regularly with a non-abrasive brush and hosed down with clean cold water and left to dry completely before rolling up – this is important to prevent mould and mildew growth. For more stubborn stains a solution of mild detergent and luke-warm water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely before rolling away. Treat stains as soon as possible.
Achilles PVC
The use of harsh chemicals for cleaning should be avoided, as these can scratch the surface or attack the material. Clear PVC should only be cleaned with a diluted solution of mild soap and warm water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth or a sponge. Do not use solvents or chemical cleaners. Do not expose sheets to abrasion. We recommend Vuplex plastic cleaner/polish.
