Chapter 2:
Bed Cabinet assembly.
REQUIRED TOOLS:
#1 Phillips Screwdriver
OVERVIEW:
In the following steps, you’ll assemble the bed on the floor, then tilt the Bed
Cabinet up. To do this, you’ll need at least 3 extra inches of height clearance. If the height
of your room is shorter than this, you’ll have to assemble the Bed Cabinet vertically.
CAM FITTINGS/SCREWS ARE OFFSET TO PREVENT THE TOP NAILER FROM BEING
INSTALLED BACKWARD. FROM THE VIEW ABOVE THE CAMS ARE FACING THE
CAMERA. ONCE ASSEMBLED, THESE WILL FACE THE WALL THE BED WILL ATTACH
TO AND NOT BE VISIBLE. DO NOT RE-DRILL HOLES IF THE CAMS DO NOT ALIGN.
FIG. 2A
Lower “
Bed Cabinet Top Nailer
” onto “
Bed Cabinet Top
” as
shown and tighten cam fitting using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
Note: Make sure cam fittings are facing toward and aligned to
this back edge of the “
Bed Cabinet Top
” as illustrated below.
Reverse the top nailer if the edges don’t align (the cams are
offset to one side). Repeat this process with the “
Bed Cabinet
Mid Nailer
” onto “
Bed Cabinet Mid Shelf
”
STEP 1
Position the “
Bed
Cabinet Right
Side
” on it’s edge
with notch for the
baseboard facing
up and position
the
Mid Shelf, Top
Shelf
(assemblies from previous step)
and “
Bed Cabinet Toe Kick
” as shown
with “
Bed Cabinet Toe Kick
” closest
to the wall where bed will be attached.
Slide in direction of arrows and tighten
all cam fittings. The Toe Kick cams face
up and tighten from the top side. The
unfinished side of the Toe Kick will be
exactly flush with the unfinished edge
of the cabinet side. If there is a 1/4” difference, turn the Toe Kick around 180
degrees (use the other two cams on the opposite side).
