Hello,
I recently aquired a Deckrullo with broken shutter curtain straps. There appears to be a looping bracket on the bottom curtain (looks like a square "8" on both ends of the bottom curtain)". Does anyone know how the straps should loop through? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I found a great link showing an assembled shutter curtain here:

for anyone with the same issue.
I've got the new curtain straps in but I'm afraid that I may have too much tension on the straps as the slit width does not change. Anyone with ideas/tips on how much tension should be on the straps would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It's done. 2 turns of spool tension appeared to work (and about 6 1/2 inches of strap on each side):D Many thanks to Francois for his help at: http://webhome.idirect.com/~fouellet
