Safety and Usage Guidelines
1. When fitting a Bed Support a risk

ensure that there is no gap between the
‘E’ clip and frame. The spindle of the ‘E’
clip should fully go through the frame.
3. Ensure the Base Support is firmly
pushed right under the mattress and
the vertical bed rests against the
mattress edge.
4. The Base Support must rest in a
horizontal position and its position
must be checked regularly in line with
the findings of the original risk
assessment.
5. Do not exceed leverage of 22 stone

area dimensions, the rail is not
recommended for any mattresses less
than 125mm (5”) thickness.
