Assembly Instructions
This assembly requires two people.
3916ASTa_3918ASTa_3920ASTa —Page 4 —04/19
Tools Required: Phillips screwdriver, 7/16" open end or box end wrench and rubber mallet.
NOTE: Remove this instruction from the Filler Strip Kit carton. Place Filler Strip and hardware kits to
the side to allow space for assembling the platform portion of the bed. Open the #3903 Platform
Connector Kit, which attaches the two Platforms together.
1. Open and unfold the Platform Kit carton in the approximate location where the bed will be
placed. This will help protect the flooring and the faces of the platform components. Place the
Headboard Platform Assembly (Ka) face down in the approximate location where the headboard
will be located with the inside edge facing the End Platform Assembly (Ja). Align the Dowels (P)
in the edge of the Headboard Platform Assembly (Ka) with the holes in the edge of the End
Platform Assembly (Ja) see Figures 1 and 1a.

2. Slide the two sections together so that the flat edges touch as shown in Figure 2. Using the
hardware from the #3903 Connector Kit, place the 1500mm Channels (U) on the Platform and
align over the predrilled holes in the platform. Attach the Channels (U) with 1/4" X 22mm Hex
Bolts (D) and 18mm Flat Washers (B). See Figures 2 and 2a.

4. The attachment of the Center Foot Assembly (V) is optional if there is no need for extra support
beyond the 850 lbs. weight limit. The addition of the foot will reduce the flex built into the design
of the bed and provide more support. To attach the Center Foot Assembly (V) align the block
over the four holes in the Headboard Platform Assembly (Ka). Attach with 1/4" X 35mm Hex
Bolts (E) and 18mm Flat washers (B). See Figures 4 and 4a.
