GENERAL INFORMATION



HARD Manufacturing cribs and youth beds are intended for use by patients up to 150lbs. 

It is strongly recommended to discourage parents or caregivers from getting into the crib or 
bed with the patient as it may cause premature wear or damage to various components.



The expected service life of all cribs and beds made by Hard Manufacturing is 9 years 

when preventative maintenance guidelines are followed.



HARD Manufacturing recommends the preventative maintenance checklist found at the 

end of this manual be performed at least once per year on each crib or bed in your facility. 
Cribs not meeting the criteria listed on the preventative maintenance checklist should be 
removed from service until they can be repaired as per the recommended guidelines.



HARD Manufacturing will support parts on our cribs and beds for up to 12 years from the 

date of manufacture as long as we still make the part or can obtain it from our vendors.



Cleaning instructions for all HARD Manufacturing cribs and beds can be found at the end 

of this manual. 

Failure to follow the proper cleaning instructions can result in 

premature rust and corrosion of the parts on your cribs.

To request a quote on replacement parts- please have either the serial # from the silver
