To Remove Actuator
Recommended Tools: Screwdriver, Hammer,
Masking Tape, Zip Ties
1. Identify the actuator to be replaced.
2. Tip the bed on its side to replace high/low
actuator(s).
3. Unplug the actuator cord.
4. The actuator is held in place by two pins. Use
a screwdriver to remove the lock ring on each
pin.
5. Slide the pins out of holes. If necessary, use
the hammer to tap out the pins.
6. You may now replace the actuator(s).
7. To reassemble the bed, reverse the previous
steps, making note of the following two
important items:
• Assemble the pin and lock rings as
originally installed.
• Zip-ties should be replaced, with cords
returned to their original position and
routing direction to the control box.
To Remove AC Power Cable
Recommended Tools: Small Screwdriver,
Masking Tape, Zip Ties, 5/16" Nut Driver
1. Raise the bed so that there is about 27 inches
of clearance between the floor and the mattress
support platform of bed.
2. Unplug the power cable from the outlet.
3. Cut the zip-ties that holds the power cable to
the frame. Tape the remaining cables in their
original position. It is very important to keep the
actuator cables routed along the frame in their
original factory-installed positions. If this step is
not followed, damage to cables or electric shock
may result.
4. Detach the ground wire from the bed frame
if equipped.
Warning: Possible Shock Hazard.
Injury may result from improper power cable
routing. Always follow proper factory-installed
routing configuration. Be sure to check condition
of the power cable on a regular basis. Do not
use damaged or frayed power cables.
5. Using a small screwdriver, alternately depress
the small red latch tabs above and below AC
receptacle on the control box. Simultaneously,
pull gently outward on the power cable where it
connects to the control box, until the plug comes
out.
6. Plug the replacement cable into the control box
until it latches. Attach the ground wire to the bed
frame.
7. Re-route the power cable along the frame in the
same position as the original routing.
8. Replace zip-ties along with cables in their
original position and routing to the control box.
If this step is not followed, damage to the cables
or electric shock may result.
