Lay Footboard
X
and Headboard
Y
down horizon-
tally, outside facing down as shown, on a soft
surface so the finish is protected. Insert an Upper Guide Bushing
C
and affix with a Flathead Machine Screw
J
to the Footboard
X
. Tighten but
do not overtighten. Use a hand held screwdriver for this instead of power driven. Over tightening can cause the Upper Guide Bushing
C
to compress
and the bushing must not bind when sliding in groove of the Metal Top Track.
At this time read and understand Diagram 4.
Test to see that
the Metal Top Track
will slide freely over the Upper Guide Bushing
C
, if not, loosen
J
until the Metal Top Track
slides freely, but make sure the
Upper Guide Bushing
C
is still securely attached. Insert Lower Guide Pin
D
into its receiving hole as shown. Lower Guide Pins
D
will remain
loose for operation of the Dropside
V
. Follow the same procedure for attaching
C, J
&
D
to the Headboard
Y
.
Next
, insert a Slotted/Phillips
Machine Screw
A
into the
top threaded insert, located in
the large routed circle, on both
the Footboard
X
and Head-
board
Y
. Leave the Slotted/
Phillips Machine Screw
A
loose at this time. Only allow
the screw to penetrate the
threaded bushing 2 or 3 turns
as shown.
While the Footboard
X
is in a
horizontal position, place the
keyhole of the assembled Sta-
bilizing Bar End Plate
N
over
the extended Slotted/Phillips
Machine Screw
A
exactly as
shown. Then insert another
A
into the bottom hole in the
End Plate
N
and into the bot-
tom threaded insert. Tighten
both screws paying close at-
tention to ensure the End Plates
M
&
N
are installed exactly
as shown. Set the Footboard
X
upright and allow the ex-
tended screw
A
on the Head-
board
Y
to receive the key-
hole on the other end of the
Stabilizing Bar. Add the bot-
tom screw
A
and tighten both
screws securely.
Align the receiving holes in
each end of the Stationary
Side
W
with the receiving
holes located in corner
posts of Footboard
X
and
Headboard
Y
. Insert an
Allen Bolt
R
into each of
the
(4)
receiving holes and
allow each to pass through
the corner posts of Head-
board
Y
& Footboard
X
,
then into the receiving holes
in each end of the Station-
ary Side
W
. Insert each of
the
(4)
K-D Bolt Plugs
L
as
shown. Pull out each Allen
Bolt
R
just enough to allow
the K-D Bolt Plug
L
to be
fully inserted in the receiv-
ing hole. Tighten all
(4)
Allen Bolts
R
until secure
using the Allen Wrench
(enclosed)
while secur-
ing K-D Bolt Plugs
L
with a
standard slotted screw-
driver.
