Make sure that the plastic caps on the drop side (Part B) are
in position over the head of the pins in the upper rail of the
dropside.
Ease the cot ends apart and making sure that the plastic
caps remain in place, fit the top end pins of the drop side
(Part B) fully into the lower end of the top slot in each end
panel (Part A), as shown in diagram A above.
Raise the dropside (Part B) to align the lower end pins with
the lower grooves as shown in diagram B. Push the lower
pins in against the spring pressure and locate them in the
slots. The help of an assistant will make this stage easier.
Push all parts tightly together and fully tighten all bolts.
Your cot is now ready for use.
NOTE: Take care when locating pins into lower grooves as
the pin can easily damage the surface finish.
To operate the Dropside;
Grasp the top rail in the centre and lift slightly.
Press the bottom of the dropside in with your leg - this will
disengage the locks and allow the side to drop. To raise
the side, lift the dropside slightly, push the bottom rail
inward with your leg then lift again until the dropside clicks
into place.
IMPORTANT: Always grasp the top rail in the centre to
ensure that both locks engage and disengage.
A light application of furniture polish to the slots in the end
panels will help ensure smooth operation of the dropside.

The bed base can be adjusted in height, but the lowest position is the safest and should always be used
in that position as soon as the baby is old enough to sit up.
The cot is suitable for a mattress of 1200mm in length and 600mm in width and a maximum thickness of
100mm. The length and width shall be no less to ensure the gap between the mattress and the sides and
ends does not exceed 30mm.
The thickness of the mattress shall be such that the internal height (surface of the mattress to the upper
edge of the cot frame) is at least 500mm in the lowest position of the cot base and at least 200mm in the
highest position of the cot base.
If you leave the child unattended in the cot, always make sure that the dropside is in the raised position.
To prevent injury from falls the cot should no longer be used for the child once they are able to climb out of
the cot.
A light application of a wax polish to the dropside grooves in the end panels will aid operation.
