Chapter 2: Bed Cabinet assembly.
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. 2C
Lower “
Bed Cabinet Top Nailer
” onto “
Bed Cabinet Top
” as
shown and tighten cam fitting using a #2 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).
STEP 3
Position the “
Bed
Cabinet Left
Side
” on it’s edge
with notch for the
baseboard facing
up and position the
top assembly 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).
STEP 4
FIG. 2D
From the perspective shown, Cam fittings on the Toe Kick should be facing up,
and tighten from the top side. If assembling vertically, these cam fittings
should face the wall the Bed Cabinet will attach to. Once assembled, cam
fittings on these parts should
not be visible.
