Thank you bro, found a few vids on this item but this was by far the most simple and efficient one. Didn't even need to open the paper manual.

Glad I could help

Hi, Ergo, no need to use a hammer that will break the plastic clips as shown in your video, to separate the "roller" from the control bar, please use a flat driver to push into the gap between the control stick and the "roller". The two parts will be separated; you can keep the plastic parts intact which helps the axle rotation smoothly. It is a shame that I can not post pictures here.

thanks, Ergo, it looks simple to do; my only question is according to the video ruclips.net/video/6_qQ9K5bFqE/видео.html; the spring needs to rewind in a different direction, however, your film did not mention anything about this, is rewinding the spring can be ignored? thanks again for the confirmation

No need to rewind the spring. Simply move it from left to right, and it works fine for me.

@@ergobuilds thanks, not sure why he needs to rewind the spring.

Just installed the blinds and you absolutely have to rewind the spring otherwise it won't stay open but roll itself out completely.

@@linkehand. strange to me, i did not rewind the spring, just move it from left to right, and it works well

[@howard1wang]

when i moved it from left to right, i had the blinds roll up completely and the control bar is in it is shortest position, not sure if this make any difference?
