Add or remove spring tension
Engage the drill clockwise to apply tension. Anticlockwise will remove tension. The weight bar will move up slightly when enough pre-turns have been applied. Tension can be adjusted at any time, even while unlocked.

Unlock the Spring to operate the shade
Push the grey lock to the unlocked position. The lock button will remain fully retracted.
If the lock does not retract, ensure the spring head is flush against the bracket adaptor.
