Chapter 5: Attaching the Bed Face Panel to the Bed Cabinet.
FIG. 5G - LOOKING THROUGH LEFT SIDE
FIG. 5H - LOOKING THROUGH LEFT SIDE
The Bed Face Panel will have a considerable amount of tension at this point.
Balance is not achieved until the mattress is loaded in the bed. DO NOT
attempt to adjust the bed at this time, adjustments will be done later.

FROM THIS POINT FORWARD, NEVER REMOVE THE SCREWS IN TOP NAILER
FROM THE WALL WITHOUT FIRST REMOVING THE BED FACE PANEL.
THE BED CABINET WILL COLLAPSE OTHERWISE.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PRY OFF THE MECHANISM ARM FROM THE FRAME
WHEN THE MECHANISM ARM IS UNDER TENSION. IF YOU NEED TO
REMOVE THE BED FACE PANEL, RE-ENGAGE THE ARM LOCKS AND
LIFT OFF THE BED FACE PANEL. SEE DISASSEMBLY CHAPTER.
If you have trouble aligning bolt #2, visit:
https://breda.us/bolt2 for solutions. To ease
lifting the Bed Face Panel onto the mechanism arms, you can lift one side at a time,
see the video link at the top of this page for a demonstration with one person. King
sizes should always be lifted with two people. If you still have any issues or confusion
on this step, see the video link at the top of this page or contact us to discuss.
KEEP ARM LOCKS ENGAGED UNTIL BOLTS IN HOLE #2 ARE SECURE!
1. Referring to Fig. 5G, stand the Bed Face Panel in vertical
position between the mechanism arms, lifting until the bolt in
Hole #3 drops in the slotted portion of each mechanism arm.
2. Gently tilt the Bed Face Panel outward toward you until the
Allen bolts in
Hole #1 hits (and is completely seated in) the bottom
corner notch of each mechanism. This is used as a positioning guide to align
Hole #2.
3. Insert the remaining 5/16 Hex head bolts from Hardware Card #2, through the mechanism
arm into
Hole #2 on each side and thread on the 5/16” Nylock nuts from Hardware Card #2.
Securely tighten these nuts and the nuts on
Hole #3 with the 1/2” Socket and wrench.
4. Verify the bolts in Holes #2 and #3 have been inserted and secured on each side (4 bolts total).
5. Tilt the Bed Face Panel outward (to approximately 45 degrees) to release the
mechanism arm locks. You may hear a click as they disengage.

Critical Step
Chapter 6:
Installing the handles, leg
support and mattress.
Using the handles and provided screws from Hardware
Package #9, attach the handles to the Bed Face Panel at the
location of the pre-drilled holes. It may be easiest to have one
person hold the handle on the Bed Face Panel while another
person tightens the screws from the backside with a drill.
STEP 1
REQUIRED TOOLS
REQUIRED HARDWARE
• Cordless Drill w/ #2 Phillips bit
• 7/16” Socket
• 1/2” Socket
• Hardware Card #4
(frame box)
• Hardware Card #5
(Optional)
• Hardware Package #9
(white box)
At this point you can install the mattress in the frame, balancing
the spring tension will be covered in the next chapter. The mattress
sits directly on top of the support stiff eners. It’s normal to have
a height diff erence between the support stiff eners and the bed
doors. This isn’t an issue with nearly all mattresses, since the
diff erence is distributed throughout the mattress.
STEP 2
FIG. 6A - LEG ASSEMBLY, RIGHT SIDE
Referring to Fig.
6A and using the
large washers from
Hardware Card #4
and 5/16” Nylock
nut pre-threaded
onto each leg,
install legs with the washers in order
as shown (3 1/4” from the edge of the
frame).
Tighten Nylock nut with a 1/2” socket to
have a small amount of friction when
the leg assembly is rotated between the
up and down positions.
