Before You Begin

Important: The system lock must be in place and engaged while adding or removing spring modules. 

The sections below will cover how to add or remove Spring Modules to balance Triathlon Configuration Roman Shade Kits:

Section 1: Adding Spring Modules

1. Loosen, but do not remove, the two (2) spring retention plate securing screws. 

2. Slide the spring retention plate along the housing, away from the installed spring modules. 

3. Remove the yellow label from the spring module and insert it into the housing as shown, in line with the already installed spring module(s). Press the spring module down into the housing until it locks into place with a 'CLICK'. 

4. Slide the spring module along the housing toward the previously-installed module until it interlocks with the previously-installed module with a 'CLICK'. (The locking pin handle may be rotated slightly to help align the interlocking parts.)

5. Holding the newly installed spring module in place, rotate the locking pin handle and pull the locking pin up and out of the housing. 

Repeat the previous steps to install each additional spring module, as needed. 

6. Slide the spring retention plate back along the housing until it touches the last spring module. Re-tighten the two (2) spring retention plate securing screws. 

Section 2: Removing Spring Modules

1. Loosen, but do not remove, the two (2) spring retention plate securing screws. 

2. Slide the spring retention plate along the housing, away from the installed spring modules. 

3. Install the locking pun on the first spring module. Align the hex-shaped hole in the locking pin with the hex-shaped spring module shaft as shown. Fit the locking pin on the shaft and rotate to lock it into the opening in the spring module housing.

4. Slide a flat-blade screwdriver between the first and second spring modules as shown. Gently twist and rock the screwdriver to separate the interlocking parts of the modules. 

5. Squeeze the retaining tabs at the top of the spring module and lift the module up and out of the housing. 

Repeat the previous step to remove any additional spring modules, as needed. 

6. Slide the spring retention plate back along the housing until it touches the last spring module. Re-tighten the two (2) spring retention plate securing screws.
