To Remove Control Box

1.  Plugs and outlets are numbered and color-coded 

so they can be easily reinstalled later (See 

Actuator And Control Box Identification).

2.  Unplug from wall outlet.

3.  Unplug all actuator cords and pendant/staff  

control plug.

4. 

Remove the control box retaining clip (Figure 33).

5. 

Slide the Control Box off the actuator assembly.

6. 

To replace the Control Box, reverse 

 

these instructions.

To Remove Actuator
Recommended Tools: Screwdriver, Hammer,  
Masking Tape, Zip Ties

1. 

Identify the actuator to be replaced.

2.  Tip the bed on its side to replace high/low 

actuator(s).

3.  Unplug the actuator cord.

4. 

The actuator is held in place by two pins. Use a 

screwdriver to remove the lock ring on each pin.

5. 

Slide the pins out of holes. If necessary, use the 

hammer to tap out the pins.

6. 

You may now replace the actuator(s).

7.  To reassemble the bed, reverse the previous 

steps, making note of the following two important 

items:

•  Assemble the pin and lock rings as  

originally installed.

• 

Zip-ties should be replaced, with cords returned 

to their original position and routing direction to 

the control box.

To Remove AC Power Cable
Recommended Tools: Small Screwdriver, Masking 
Tape, Zip Ties, 5/16" Nut Driver

1. 

Raise the bed so that there is about 27 inches 

of clearance between the floor and the mattress 

support platform of bed.

2.  Unplug the power cable from the outlet.

3. 

Cut the zip-ties that hold the power cable to the 

frame. Tape the remaining cables in their original 

position. It is very important to keep the actuator 

cables routed along the frame in their original 

factory-installed positions. If this step is not 

followed, damage to cables or electric shock may 

result.

4.  Detach the ground wire from the bed frame  

if equipped.

Warning: Possible Shock Hazard.

 Injury may result 

from improper power cable routing. Always follow 

proper factory-installed routing configuration. Be sure 

to check condition of the power cable on a regular 

basis. Do not use damaged or frayed power cables.

5. 

Using a small screwdriver, alternately depress 

the small red latch tabs above and below AC 

receptacle on the control box. Simultaneously, 

pull gently outward on the power cable where it 

connects to the control box, until the plug comes 

out.

6.  Plug the replacement cable into the control box 

until it latches. Attach the ground wire to the bed 

frame.

7. 

Re-route the power cable along the frame in the 

same position as the original routing.

8.  Replace zip-ties along with cables in their original 

position and routing to the control box. If this step 

is not followed, damage to the cables or electric 

shock may result.
