Attaching a wand to vertical blinds is usually a straightforward process involving a plastic cap and a hook. Here's a breakdown of the steps:
- Remove the Plastic Cap: Take the new wand and remove the plastic cap from the tip – this cap is crucial for securing the wand.
- Slide the Cap onto the Tilt Mechanism: Locate the stem of the tilt mechanism on your blinds. Slide the plastic cap you removed earlier onto this stem.
- Insert the Wand Hook: The wand has a wire hook at the top. Insert this hook through the eyelet (small hole) of the stem on the tilt mechanism.
- Secure the Wand: Slide the plastic cap down over the tip of the wand. This will lock the wand in place and prevent it from detaching during use.
That's it! Your wand should now be securely attached to your vertical blinds. If the wand still feels loose, double-check that the plastic cap is firmly in place. In rare cases, you might need to replace the entire tilt mechanism if it's damaged.
