Complete Assembly
Your bed frame is now completely assembled but the ottoman will not operate correctly unless a mattress is
placed on the slat frame and will not stay shut unless the mattress remains in position. To position the
mattress on the slat frame, simply place the mattress on top of the slat frame whilst it is in the up (open) position.
Lift with the strap and close with the strap. The strap should always be accessible. Take care not to lean over the bed when
lifting, if the mattress is thin and light, the frame may rise quickly. The speed of closing will also depend on the weight of the
mattress so always keep fingers well clear of the metal frame.
PLEASE NOTE - It takes a lot of force to make the initial movement of the ottoman - THIS IS A DESIGN FEATURE OF THE
PRODUCT SO THAT IT DOES NOT FALL SHUT - and the nearer to being closed the ottoman is , the easier it is to move.
When the ottoman is almost shut, it will close completely under its own weight.
When lowering the slat unit for the first time, take care to make sure it does not rub unevenly on the inside face of the Side
rail. If it does, the bed has been assembled slightly out of square. This can be rectified by moving the Footboard of the bed
slightly to the left or right whilst leaving the headboard of the bed frame stationary.
