SwingAway Vertical Wall Bed Assembly Instructions
The SwingAway (CEVNT) systems are vertically mounted wall beds that stand alone on their own sub-
frame, which must be fixed to the floor and wall. The bed can be mounted in a recess or cabinet using
bi-folding doors, concealed using a curtain etc. or left on view. NOTE: Doors cannot be fixed to the base
of a SwingAway Bed. The counter balanced mechanism is suitable for use with most standard sized
mattresses. Maximum mattress depth is 8”.
Note: it is essential that the bed assembly is securely fixed to floor and / or
wall with correct fixings. Do not try to pull the bed down into the
horizontal position unless it is fixed and always use the pull handle. Risk of
injury may occur if wall bed is not correctly secured.

any items are missing contact your retailer immediately.
•Please take time to read these instructions fully before attempting assembly of the SwingAway
wallbed.
•The SwingAway must be fixed to the floor and wall. Failure to do so could be dangerous!
•Do not attempt to operate the bed prior to securely fixing in place.

Assembly Instructions
Bed Frame Assembly (fig 2)
1. Slide the two joining bars C & D into the sides
of the Bed frame A. Insert them until the two
holes in the joining bars line up with the two
holes in the bed frame (this may require some
force, if necessary use a Nylon hammer). For
double sizes, a central joining bar needs to be
fitted at this time. Place bed joining bolts into
these holes and secure hand tight with nuts.
2. Slide Bed Frame B over joining bars C & D until
the holes in the joining bars and the holes in
the frame are aligned then insert the final bed
joining bolts. Now tighten all bolts.(fig 2)
3. Bolt the mattress support ‘J’ to the Head end
of the bed frame. (fig 2)

Sub Frame Assembly (fig 1)
4. Assemble the sub frame as shown in fig 1. ‘H’
is the bar with the additional Lug; ensure that
‘H’ is located at the front and that the lug is
on the left hand side of the assembly as in fig
1. Bolt the counterbalanced units ‘E’ & ‘F’ to
the sub-frames ‘H’ & ‘I’ as shown in fig 1. Do
not tighten the nuts yet.
5. Before tightening the nuts, mount the angled
wall brackets ‘G’ to the top rear bolts on the
sub-frame ‘I’. The brackets have two holes;
the ones to be used are determined by the
thickness of the mattress which dictates the
distance of the bed frame from the wall.

Complete Assembly (fig 3)
6. Place the bolts into the holes at the head end of the bed frame. Lift the bed frame into position,
lining the bolts up with holes of the counterbalanced units. (‘E’&’F’ in Fig 1) and securing by
tightening the nuts.
7. Join together the two halves of the automatic leg
bar ‘K’& ’L’ then attach the end with the smaller
hole to leg ‘M’ (Fig 3).
8. Attach the end with the bigger hole to the lug on
frame ‘H’ (Fig 1) using the washer and split pin.
(Fig 3)
9. Screw pull handle ’N’ to the crossbar of the legs
(Fig 3). Place the assembled bed and sub-frame
in the preferred position in the room and mark
out the holes to be drilled in the wall and floor.
Fix as appropriate. NOTE: IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT
THE BED ASSEMBLY IS SECURELY FIXED TO FLOOR
AND WALL WITH CORRECT FIXINGS (NOT
SUPPLIED).
10. Fix the sub-frame securely to the wall using the
correct fixings to suit the wall and floor material.
11. With the bed in the horizontal position, place the
mattress onto the frame and secure with bedding
straps. N.B. without the weight of the mattress
the bed will try to return to its upright position,
so it is suggested to have someone assist you by
holding the bed whilst you put the mattress on.

Important Safety Factors
•Do not attempt to operate the bed prior to securely fixing in place.
•Due to the extremely reactive springs, it is important that you always manually control the bed
by maintaining hand contact whilst in the ascent and decent position.
•Do not remove the mattress whilst in the horizontal position unless the frame is being held by
another person.
•If you are relocating the bed do not remove any of the fixings unless the bed is in the vertical
position.
•Children are discouraged from being in the vicinity when being assembled, fitted and from
playing with the model either in the sleeping or stored position.
•Care must be taken when operating the bed, never lift the bed with anyone on the bed.
•All wall beds and cabinets must be securely fixed to the wall and fixations regularly checked.
