Removing roller blind

    Hi,

    I'm trying to remove roller blinds and am having some difficulty. My understanding is that I start with the side opposite the chain, photographed as shown.

    I think I've to pull the pin (arrow pointing at it) straight down with pliers etc but don't want to try it in case I break something. If someone could describe how to do this or has a link to instructions etc I'd much appreciate it.

    Sorry for asking a stupid question but what do I push towards the wall? Just the pin or the blind or the bit around the pin?

    I had a similar one, if I remember correctly I used a small flat head screw driver to push the pin outwards (towards the wall) and it clipped out. You can then slide the blind out from the window.

    That worked thanks. Dismantled the blind easily after that. All systems go!
