Assembling the Bed Ends
NOTE–
The headboard is taller than the footboard.
1. Stand the headboard next to the head section of the bed.
2. Lift the head end and engage the pins in the frame into the hooks on the headboard
(Figure 24). Leaning the headboard back slightly will help the pins fit into the
hooks more easily.
3. Lift the foot section of the bed and engage the pins on the frame into the hooks on
the footboard in the same manner.
Make sure head and foot ends are securely locked to the head and foot boards
before using bed.
Installing the Casters
NOTE–
For maximum locking stability, assemble the two locking casters diagonally at
opposite ends of the bed.
Install all four casters simply by raising the bed ends from the floor and pushing the stem
up into the caster socket in each bed leg (Figure 25).
Assembling Hi/Lo Connecting Rod
NOTE–
This section does not apply to fixed height or two crank models.
NOTE–
The connecting rod has two sections: The inner rod has a detent button, and the
outer rod has two positioning holes and one storage position hole.
1. Remove plastic caps from both ends of connecting rod.
2. Depress detent button on inner rod and insert into outer rod. Slide the inner rod in
place and engage the detent button into the first positioning hole.
3. The connecting rod mounts directly into the head and foot end gearbox output shafts
(Figures 26 & 27).
POSSIBLE INJURY OR DAMAGE. After the bed has been assembled, check to make
sure that all components are secured properly in place and all fasteners are tight
before use.
POSSIBLE INJURY. Do not leave electric bed plugged in while not in use.
Installing the Pendant
Install the hand pendant by plugging its connector into the matching socket in the
control box.
NOTE–
Semi-electric beds use a four-function pendant for head and foot functions.
Leveling the Bed
For semi-electric beds with a single crank, turn the center hi/low crank counterclockwise
(see Semi-Electric Bed Operation). The lowest end of the bed will soon stop moving down-
ward, but the higher end of the bed will continue moving down. When both bed ends are at
their lowest, your bed will be level.
NOTE–
If you are having difficulty leveling the bed because only one bed end moves up or
down, check to be sure all center drive tube pins and slots are properly engaged.
