Eagle295BHDS question about the blinds

[Nance26]

Hello,
We just got our fifth wheel last Friday. Silly question (here goes!) How the heck do I lift the blinds? We didn't notice this until after our trailer was dropped off and the inspection was done. (Ordered online and had it delivered).
The cord for the blinds and tightly wound around a screw and washer which is bolted to the wall. So, am I supposed to unscrew this to loosen the blinds? Thought I would ask before calling the dealership. Thanks

You should be able to just lift up the whole blind from the bottom and just pull it down to close. At least that is how mine works.

The blinds travel up and down on the cord. Just pull the blinds down and push them back up.

The cords around the screw are the tensioning/friction device. You don't need to mess with it. The blinds have a friction system that keeps the blind where you put it.

Like Albertaguy said, lift up the whole blind from the bottom to open and pull that bottom bar down down to close.

Usually it's a 2 step process. The first is the day shade the second is the bottom of the shade which is the night shade.

You can use either according how much light or lack of it you want inside.

Finger in the middle on small ones, two hands on the wider ones.
