Connector Nut (I) is installed through the outside
face of the receiving hole. Thread both Allen Bolts
(G) and Connector Nuts (I) together securely using
Allen Wrenches (A).
To adjust height of Spring (N), unthread Allen Head
Bolts (G) from Connector Nuts (I) at each corner of
Spring (N). Also remove Allen Head Bolts (G) and
described in Step 7) at the new selected height.
Move the Spring (N) to the new height location.

STEP 7
Fill all empty holes to prevent nger entrapment of
the child. There are a total of eight (8) empty holes
at the two (2) extra adjustment levels for Spring (N).
Use Allen Head Bolts (G) and Connector Nuts (I)
to ll each hole. Install as shown and thread them
together securely using Allen Wrenches (A).
There is also one (1) empty hole in Foot Post Left
(Q) and Foot Post Right (R) near the middle of each
post. That hole is for mounting of Guard Rail which
can be purchased when the Crib is converted to a
Toddler Bed. Use an Allen Head Bolt (E) and
Connector Nut (I) to ll each of these holes as
shown. Thread them together securely using Allen
Wrenches (A).

This Crib can be converted to a Toddler Bed for
further use once it is no longer needed as a Crib.
This can be accomplished by removing Allen Head
Bolts (B) and Connector Nuts (H) which were
installed during Step 2 to assemble the Long Foot
Assembly section of the Crib. Once these are
removed, carefully remove the Long Foot Assembly
(K). Then ll all emply holes in Foot Post Left (Q)
and Foot Post Right (R) using Allen Head Bolts (E)
and Connector Nuts (I). Install in three (3) empty
holes in each Post as shown and thread securely
together with Allen Wrenches (A).
Also attach Post Cap (U) to top of Foot Post Left
(Q) and Foot Post Right (R) by aligning receiving
holes in bottom face of Post Cap (U) with dowel pins
in the top end of Foot Post Left (Q) and Foot Post
Right (R). Then install Allen Head Bolts (F) through
receiving hole in Post Cap (U) and thread into metal
threaded insert in top of Foot Post Left (Q) and
Foot Post Right (R). Tighten securely using Allen
Wrenches (A).
See Figure 8.
