H01793:05/00 3
Lay Footboard Xand Headboard Ydown horizon-
tally, outside facing down as shown, on a soft
surface so the finish is protected. Insert an Upper Guide Bushing Cand affix with a Flathead Machine Screw Jto the Footboard X. Tighten but
do not overtighten. Use a hand held screwdriver for this instead of power driven. Over tightening can cause the Upper Guide Bushing C to compress
and the bushing must not bind when sliding in groove of the Metal Top Track. At this time read and understand Diagram 4. Test to see that
the Metal Top Track will slide freely over the Upper Guide Bushing C, if not, loosen Juntil the Metal Top Track slides freely, but make sure the
Upper Guide Bushing Cis still securely attached. Insert Lower Guide Pin Dinto its receiving hole as shown. Lower Guide Pins Dwill remain
loose for operation of the Dropside V. Follow the same procedure for attaching C, J & Dto the Headboard Y.
Next, insert a Slotted/Phillips
Machine Screw Ainto the
top threaded insert, located in
the large routed circle, on both
the Footboard Xand Head-
board Y. Leave the Slotted/
Phillips Machine ScrewA
loose at this time. Only allow
the screw to penetrate the
threaded bushing 2 or 3 turns
as shown.
While the Footboard X is in a
horizontal position, place the
keyhole of the assembled Sta-
bilizing Bar End Plate N over
the extended Slotted/Phillips
Machine Screw Aexactly as
shown. Then insert another
Ainto the bottom hole in the
End Plate Nand into the bot-
tom threaded insert. Tighten
both screws paying close at-
tention to ensure the End Plates
M& N are installed exactly
as shown. Set the Footboard
Xupright and allow the ex-
tended screw Aon the Head-
board Yto receive the key-
hole on the other end of the
Stabilizing Bar. Add the bot-
tom screw Aand tighten both
screws securely.
Align the receiving holes in
each end of the Stationary
Side Wwith the receiving
holes located in corner
posts of Footboard Xand
Headboard Y. Insert an
Allen Bolt Rinto each of
the (4) receiving holes and
allow each to pass through
the corner posts of Head-
board Y & Footboard X,
then into the receiving holes
in each end of the Station-
ary Side W. Insert each of
the (4) K-D Bolt Plugs L as
shown. Pull out each Allen
Bolt Rjust enough to allow
the K-D Bolt Plug Lto be
fully inserted in the receiv-
ing hole. Tighten all (4)
Allen Bolts Runtil secure

S TEP 4 - D IAGRAM 4: INSTALLATION OF DROPSIDE.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION OF DROPSIDE:
Loosen the four Slotted/Phillips Screws Awhich attach
the Stabilizing Bar Tto the Headboard Yand Footboard
Xto prepare for Dropside VV
VV
Vinstallation. Back out these
(4) Screws a full (8) revolutions each, but do not remove
the screws.The Stablizing Bar Twill now be loose.
Install Dropside Vby following substeps Ithrough IV
listed below. Refer to Diagram. (It would be helpful to
have a friend assist you with this procedure.) Note: the
outside location of Dropside VV
VV
Vas shown in Dia-
gram.
I. Note: During the Dropside V installation procedure
use extreme caution when Top Tracks and Lower Tracks
make contact with Upper Guide Bushings
CC
CC
C and Lower
Guide Pins
DD
DD
D so as not to damage the finish of this crib.
II. Insert the Upper Guide Bushings CC
CC
C(mounted to
Footboard X and Headboard Y in STEP 2)into the
Upper Tracks (metal) which were factory mounted to
Dropside.Hold the Dropside Vat approximately 30
degrees from vertical as shown in Diagram.
III. Once both ends are engaged, then carefully allow
Dropside Vto slide downward. Then rotate the bottom
end of the Dropside Vuntil it is nearly vertical. (Note:
Rotation will be stopped when the dropside V touches
the Lower Guide pins
DD
DD
D .Carefully let the Dropside V
slide down until it is as low as it can go.
IV. READ THIS STEP COMPLETELY BEFORE PROCEEDING. Next, lift
Dropside VV
VV
Vapproximately two inches (2") vertically. This will put Dropside
Vin the proper vertical alignment with the Lower Guide Pin DD
DD
Dwhich will
be inserted into the Lower Tracks (Right & Left).
Flex the bottom end of the corner post on the Dropside side of Footboard X
away from the Dropside V. The purpose of this process is to create a gap
for the Lower Guide Pins Dto pass through so that the Lower Guide Pins
can be inserted into the long groove of the plastic Lower Tracks. As you
prepare to accomplish this please note the following:
If the Stabilizing Bar Assembly T was not loosened enough (as described
in PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION OF DROPSIDE in the beginning
of this Step) there will not be enough slack to create the necessary gap
required for the Lower Guide Pin Dto pass through. Prematurely forcing the
pin through a gap with inadequate clearance could damage the finish on the
DropsideV. If your crib has too small of a gap, then lower Dropside Vto its
lowest position and check to verify that preparation at beginning of Step 4
was performed correctly.
If it was performed correctly, but the gap is still too small, it may be because
the Stabilizing Bar Tassembly needs to be pulled away from the bottom rails
of the Footboard Xor Headboard Y. Check to verify that the End Plates M
& Nhave been pulled away from the bottom rails until they touch the
underside of the heads of loosened Slotted/Phillips Machine Screws AA
AA
A.
After the Lower Guide Pin DD
DD
Dhas been installed into the long groove on
Footboard X, then repeat this process on Headboard Y. After both Lower
Guide Pins Dare installed, very carefully and slowly raise the DropsideV
up until it locks into its raised position. Be very careful to watch to ensure that
the Lower Guide Pins Dlocated in the grooves do not slip out during the
process of raising Dropside V.
Refer to Diagram 2. Tighten the (4) Slotted/Phillips Machine Screws AA
AA
Awhich
were installed in Step 2 to attach Stabilizing Bar Tto Headboard Yand
Footboard Xbut were loosened in Step 4. Be sure the (4) Slotted/Phillips
Machine Screws AA
AA
Aare tightened securely. Check these screws periodically
and tighten if needed.
Check the function of Dropside V. To lower the Dropside, lift
up on the Dropside top rail with your hand near the middle and
then press in with your knee on the center of the Dropside
bottom rail. The Dropside will then lower. To lock the Dropside
in the raised position, just lift it up until it locks into place.
Always verify that both ends of the Dropside are locked in the
raised position whenever child is placed in crib. Only lower
the Dropside when attending to child. Lower crib DropsideVV
