Foot Section Height adjustment
The foot section angle is adjustable when the
knee-gatch section of the mattress support
surface is elevated.
5.4.1 To elevate Floor Section
Horizontally
While grasping the outer edges of
the foot section panel close to the
foot board, lift upwards slowly to an
elevation angle slightly past the desired
position. The foot section has two
ratchet struts that will produce a clicking
sound as the spring-loaded locking
mechanisms travel past the range of
available locking positions. Once the
desired position has been reached,
gently allow the foot panel to lower.
The locking mechanism will
automatically find the first available
ratchet position.
5.4.2 To lower Floor Section
While grasping the outer edges of the
foot section panel close to the foot
board, lift upwards slowly to release
the spring locking mechanism. Then,
slowly lower the panel until firmly
returned to its original position resting
on the main frame.
