Setting up a base for your bed

Assembling the legs and castors to your base:

1. Turn the base of the bed upside down and insert the pintle¹ into the hole and turn clockwise. Repeat for all legs.
2. Tighten by hand until legs are firmly in place.
3. Turn base back over and re-tighten legs as tightly as possible by hand. Check and re-tighten where necessary every three months.
4. Important: It is the purchaser’s responsibility to tighten the legs and castors to ensure that the bed is set up as intended.
5. When purchasing a new mattress you should consider replacing your old base as well.

1. A pintle is a pin or bolt on which another part pivots, such as pins securing casters in furniture. ↩︎
