• For proper operation, the bed weight requires the suitable gas spring. The table below is helpful in the selection, and for intermediate values, the weight shoud be rounded.
• Only fastening bolts of at least 8.8 quality can be used to secure the hardware. The use of wood screws is only recommended for fixing the rails.

Installation:

• Install the hardware in the couch as shown in the figure below.
• Before installation, make sure that the surface is suitable for fixing the mechanism.
• When fastening to wood or chipboard elements, it is recommended to use washers under the screws and nuts used.
