The Princess 5000 lateral tilting bed, is made up of seven major components, comprising of :

Due to the weight and size of the components, dismantling should be carried out by two people.

With one person at either end, lift out the central spindle gently to avoid damage to the wood of the
head and footboards. The central spindle weighs so ensure correct lifting procedures are
followed.
Undo and remove the eight bolts (position indicated fig 2.0 ), that connect the frame bars to the
head and foot boards with an appropriate Allen key.
While one person holds the frame bars in place the other should slide the foot board out of the way.
Then finally, with one person holding the head board the two frame bars should be removed.
The bed should now be in seven pieces and if being transported any distance we recommend that all
bolts and nuts are placed back in their mountings to avoid being misplaced.
Assembly is the reverse of this procedure, however particular attention should be taken to the
Following:
Footboard has a
threaded bolt for the
spindle bar connection.
Slide the frame bars onto the head board so that the Monkey pole fixings , fig 2.0 are at the head
end of the bed and that the tubular mattress supports , fig 2.0 are innermost.
Ensure all fixings are tight and cables are routed correctly. The mains cable and the two handset
cables must be kept away from the High / Low mechanism shafts to avoid them being sheared.
