Using a studfinder,
locate three wall
studs to be attached
to (one near the center of
the bed, and one on each
side). Draw a vertical pencil
line that will appear above
and below the top assem-
bly. Move the Hiddenbed to
the desired location and lift
and lock the bed in the up
position. (CAUTION-The
unit is unstable and may try
to fall over. DO NOT leave
unattended in this position!)
Push some folded card-
board between the cabinet
sides and bed tray on each
side to assure even spac-
ing. Mark the wall at each
upper corner of the cabinet,
then cautiously unlock and
lower the bed. Attach to the
wall studs by driving 2 1/2”
screws through the top as-
sembly backrail, close to
the top, at the stud points
marked for alignment.
YOU MUST HIT STUDS,
as sheetrock or paneling
will not hold the bed up!
CONNECTING THE LEVER ARM
Using two people, raise and LOCK the bed in the up position. For
safety, first person needs to keep the bed in the vertical upright
closed position while the second person holds the desk wing and
pulls the lever arm down to the bearer, then release to connect
gently with the bearer. Verify that the desk is sitting fully up to the
side panel. If it is not, slightly loosen the bearer bolts allowing it to
do so, then retighten securely. Then apply screws to each of the
three flange holes of the bearer fittings on each end of the desk.
One lever arm at a time may be released for screw access.

USE TIPS
Please keep these instructions for future reference.
Moving the fully assembled unit is NOT recommended.
 This product is designed to hold mat-
tresses up to 10” thick.
 Lift pistons should never be lubricated
 Movement will be affected by the weight
on the work surface. A load limit of 50lbs
is recommended.
 Although the bed will remain closed by it-
self under most loads, the locks should be
used to assure a steady and safe work
surface.
 Operation is done by releasing the locks
and pulling down on the upper corner of
the desk wing, NOT by pushing on the
work surface.
