Installation
Mechanical
NOTE:
Always install the bed lifting system taking into account the system maximum load. THE BED UNIT
AS A WHOLE - INCLUDING BED LIFTING SYSTEM, MATTRESS, PILLOW, BLANKETS, ETC. - MUST NOT
WEIGH MORE THAN 60 KG.
NOTE:
TAB. A AND TAB. B images are all located on Page 19 of this manual.
1.
Place the system under the bed frame, following the layout example shown in TAB. A - Picture A.1,
taking into account the motor revolution direction indicated by an arrow on the plastic support
side (TAB. B - Picture B.1). The revolution direction stands for the winding direction of the belts. As a
consequence, the shafts must have the same rotation direction.
2.
It is very important that the belts winding in one direction are mounted in a parallel way on both
shafts; the same applies to the belts winding in the opposite direction (TAB. B - Picture B.2)
3.
After mounting the bed lifting system under the bed frame, wind the belts around the shafts taking
care of the motor revolution direction and pre-wind the belts at least twice (TAB. B - Picture B.3)
NOTE:
The four belts must be pre-wound at least twice around the shafts in the bed lowest position; the
same applies to all of the four belts.
4.
Place the four belt-fixing plates (TAB. A - Picture A.2) in a suitable position - i.e. the highest position the
system will reach - making sure the belts are aligned with the runners and taking care of the minimum
distance to be kept between the slider and the belt-fixing plate (TAB. A - Picture A.3) and making sure
that it will bear the system maximum load.
NOTE:
The bed lifting system can bear a total maximum weight of 400 kg.
5.
Fix the belt-fixing plates with suitable screws (we recommend 4.2x25 screws) in the four slots first, in
order to adjust and correct any possible installation defect and then fix all of the remaining screws
(TAB. A - Picture A.2)
6.
Place the bed frame inside of the vehicle on four temporary supports in order to keep it parallel to the
vehicle floor. The temporary supports height must be measured based on the lowest position the bed
will reach.
7.
Insert the belts into the belt-fixing plates as illustrated in TAB. A - Picture A.2, stretch them and fix the
four M6 bolts by cross-screwing, insert the covers into the belt-fixing plates.
8.
Activate the bed lifting system and lift it to the maximum height wished; then make sure the belts are
perfectly aligned with the belt sliders.
9.
Place the two stabilizer runners by inserting them bottom-up into the stabilizers mounted on one side
of the bed (TAB. A - Picture A.4).
NOTE:
The runners must be mounted on the longest side of the bed and fixed on a suitable supporting
bracket with suitable screws so that it will tolerate oscillations caused by the bed lifting system.
10.
Fix one screw in the middle channel of the runner (we recommend at least 3.8x20 screws) on the
highest position available under the stabilizer.
