Commonly asked Questions and Answers

WHAT IS THE HEIGHT OF THE ERGO SYSTEM BASE?

With standard legs and casters installed, the overall 
height is approximately 15 1/8” floor to the bottom 
of the mattress. The distance between the floor and 
the bottom edge of the base, with standard legs and 
casters installed, is approximately 7 3/4”. See chart on 
page 9 for other options.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO RAISE THE HEIGHT OF THE  

ERGO SYSTEM BASE?

Yes, you can add up to 4” to the overall height of the 
Ergo System by ordering the riser leg set. These include 6 
replacement legs with casters, and come with either an 
overall height of approximately 8” or 10”. Please note 
that the riser leg set replaces the standard leg set that 
comes with the Ergo System. They are not used together. 

DOES THE ERGO SYSTEM BASE COME WITH 

FOOTBOARD ATTACHMENTS?

No, you cannot attach a footboard directly to the Ergo 
System base. However, you can use a “freestanding” 
bed including headboard, footboard and side rails 
by placing the complete Ergo System within the 
assembled bed. It may be easiest to assemble the bed 
around the Ergo System. You should measure the 
inside dimensions of the assembled bed to be sure the 
Ergo System will fit. One of our riser leg sets may be 
required in some cases.

WILL THE ERGO SYSTEM FIT INSIDE EXISTING 

FURNITURE?

The Ergo System is designed to fit into most 
“freestanding” beds. We always recommend you 
measure the inside dimensions of the assembled bed 
to be sure the Ergo System will fit. Please refer to the 
specifications on page 9 for exact dimensions of the base. 
One of our riser leg sets may be required in some cases.

WHERE IS THE SERIAL NUMBER ON THE ERGO 

SYSTEM BASE?

The serial number can be found on the law tag 
attached to the cover, the power down box under 
the base and on the frame right below the foot end 
of the base. It may be easier to see by lifting the foot 
slightly if possible. The serial number is also located on 
a sticker on page 3 of the Complete Reference Guide 
(owner’s manual) shipped with the base.

WHO DO I CALL FOR SERVICE OR SUPPORT IF NEEDED?

Service and technical support is available by calling 
our dedicated customer service group at 1-800-979-
1457. An owner’s manual is included with each base 
including other information for making claims.

IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AVAILABLE?

No.

DO I GET A FULL WARRANTY IF I PURCHASE A 

FLOOR MODEL?

Yes. However, your warranty start date is the date of 
manufacture which is clearly marked on the law tag 
attached to the base (not your actual purchase date).

WHAT ARE THE ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS OF 

THE ERGO SYSTEM BASE?

During normal operation, the base will typically draw 
1.0 Amp of electricity from a normal AC wall outlet. 
The power supply has a 1.5 Amp fuse installed to 
prevent damage to the unit should a power surge 
occur. It is highly recommended that the customer use 
a power surge protector (not included with the base).

DOES THE UNIT HAVE AC OR DC MOTORS?

The lift motors used on the Ergo System base are DC 
motors. The base’s power supply converts the AC 
power from the wall outlet to DC power.
