Head End Pivot Point Crossbrace Installation

1.  Locate the two head deck 

angle slots on either side of 

the bed closest to the head 

end pivot point (see near 

right picture).

2.  Position the head end 

pivot point crossbrace so it 

extends across the bed. En-

sure the stabilizers remain at the bottom of the crossbrace and rotate the rail guides so the long ends 

face upward and the spring buttons face the bed's foot end, as shown in above center picture.

3.  Insert one of the crossbrace stabilizers into the slot across the bed from you. Compress the spring-

loaded crossbrace until the second stabilizer aligns with the slot closest to you and lower it into the 

slot. Slowly release crossbrace until it locks into place.

4.  Rotate the crossbrace so the long ends of the rail guides face downward and the spring buttons face 

the bed's head end, as shown in above far right picture.

Head End Crossbrace Installation

1.  Locate the two head deck angle 

slots on either side of the bed 

closest to the bed's head end 

(see near right picture).

2.  Position the head end cross-

brace so it extends across the 

bed. Ensure the stabilizers re-

main at the bottom of the crossbrace and rotate the rail guides so the long ends face upward and the 

spring buttons face the bed's head end, as shown in above center picture.

3.  Insert one of the crossbrace stabilizers into the slot across the bed from you. Compress the spring-

loaded crossbrace until the second stabilizer aligns with the slot closest to you and lower it into the 

slot. Slowly release crossbrace until it locks into place.

4.  Rotate the crossbrace so the long ends 

of the rail guides face downward and the 

spring buttons face the bed's foot end, 

as shown in above far right picture.

Head Rail Installation

1.  Align the two legs of each rail over the 

crossbrace rail guides. Ensure the outer 

telescoping rail tubes are facing the 

bed's head end and the rail rivet stops 

are facing outward, as shown at right.

2.  Gently pull out the spring buttons and 

lower the rail until both buttons click 

into position in the first holes on both 

rail legs, locking down the rail.

 WARNING: Ensure the outer telescoping

rail tubes face the head end of the bed as 
shown at right; if positioned otherwise, a 
pinch point could occur when bed is raised 
or lowered.
