NOTE
: Before moving the slat frame, place the mattress on the slats. Without a mattress in place, the speed of movement
is quick and may cause injury. Carefully lower the frame with the hand-strap ensuring the frame sides are aligned with the
side panels; there should be an even gap on each side. If not aligned, check bed is still square (see Stage 3) and if it is, but
gaps are still not even, re-align as in Stage 8.
Depending on the weight of the mattress, the rising speed will vary so be careful until you get used to the speed. Always
use the strap to lift or lower the frame - keep fingers well away from the moving parts.
When fully assembled and the mattress in position, please raise & lower the ottoman 4/5 times to
ensure the gas pistons are fully lubricated.

Note: Be very careful what
you store under the bed -
the top of an item, like a
suitcase or a box must not
touch the slats or they may
be damaged. Maximum
storage height is 185mm.
During this next step, the assistant should hold up the
slat frame.
On side rails (3&4) slide gas-lift piston stems (X)
onto the axles (Y) then fit the flange lock-nuts (H).
Tighten nuts with spanner (H) - BUT DO NOT
over-tighten. A small gap is left so stems can
move freely - this is important - see sketch below.
