4. The bed can now be mounted in the cabinet. The cast iron mounting plates are supplied with

nuts, bolts and countersinks and MUST be used; the countersinks are to be set into the outside

of the side panels to provide extra bearing strength - when the bed is under tension these are

the points of most stress. The position of these plates in the cabinet is another important

dimension (see page 2). Slacken the mechanism adjusters (anti clockwise) and ensure that the

Allen bolts on the mechanisms are slackened (see page 3). Now mount the bed and

headboard assembly within the cabinet. Slight adjustment of the level of the bed from left to

right can be achieved with the Allen bolts in the mechanism lugs.

5. Now your cabinet is assembled and attached to the wall the headboard arrangement can be

assembled. This is a simple arrangement but important for safety by stopping 'things' falling

down behind if the bed is lifted. N.B. It may not be possible to have a headboard arrangement

if you are using the minimum depth of cabinet. A board slightly higher than the mattress,

chamfered at the top edge is bolted to the bed frame. The chamfered end can then be attached

to another chamfered edge board with a piano hinge, allowing it to run up and down

automatically (see page 6)

Adjusting the Bed Mechanism

When the bed is under tension it will hold the doors tight to the cabinet or door stops. The mattress and

doors must be on the bed for adjustment. Checking the cabinet is securely fixed to the wall, adjust the

mechanism with the bed slightly out (see page 3) tighten, hand tight evenly each side. Then using 24 mm

socket and ratchet (or similar) tighten the mechanisms again two or three turns. The weight of the

mattress and doors will determine the adjustment needed, but the aim is for smooth light action (note –

sometimes springs will creak when settling).
