Overview

THE MECHANISM

Installs directly onto the cabinet side panels and bolts secure in 5 places. Bolt hole template is included with the instructions.

FRAME SETUP

You should have an equal number of springs on each side of the adjustment screw. Use the same number of springs and the same layout on both left and right mechanisms. Loosen the adjustment nut so the tension bars are angled approximately 20 degrees for access to the bolt heads.

1. Insert the two allen head bolts from the outside of the frame through the #1 holes and secure tightly using  Nyloc nuts included.

2. Insert the two hex head bolts from the outside of the frame through the #3 holes. Affix  Nyloc nuts until flush with the bolt ends.

3. Stand the bed face panel in vertical position between the tension arms, lift evenly until the hex head bolts in the #3 holes drop into the notch end of each tension bar.

4. Gently tilt the bed face toward you until the allen bolts in the #1 holes are completely seated in the bottom notches of the tension bars. Insert the remaining hex head bolts in the #2 holes from the outside in and tighten the bolts in holes number 2 and 3 securely.

The frame is now secured to the mechanism.

LOADING THE MATTRESS

Pull the frame down into its horizontal position. You will need one person to hold the frame down while the other person loads the mattress onto the bed frame/face panel. Secure it down with the Velcro straps that are provided.

Caution: We suggest to have a helper assist in the setting of the frame onto the mechanism and the loading of the mattress onto the mattress frame because it will be under tension by the springs. Take all necessary safety stages as per our manual. 

LEVELLING

Levelling the bed is essential. Using the same open end wrench as before, tighten the adjuster nut on the right and left sides evenly. Check to make sure the frame (with mattress) is levelled both side to side and front to back. Proper levelling will facilitate proper closure and exact sight lines of the fit of the face panel to the cabinet. The installer will need the bed face open enough to adjust the mechanism.
