5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe down the metal frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the powder-coated finish.
- Fastener Checks: Periodically inspect all screws, bolts, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten any loose fasteners to maintain the bed's stability and safety.
- Structural Integrity: Regularly check the bed frame for any signs of damage, bending, or stress. If any issues are found, discontinue use and contact customer support.
6. Troubleshooting
- Wobbling or Instability: If the bed feels unstable or wobbles, re-check all assembly connections. Ensure all heavy-duty screws are firmly tightened. Uneven flooring can also contribute to wobbling; consider using shims if necessary.
- Squeaking Noises: Squeaking often indicates loose connections. Identify the source of the squeak and tighten the corresponding fasteners. Applying a small amount of lubricant (e.g., silicone spray) to metal-on-metal contact points can also help.
- Difficulty with Assembly: If you encounter difficulties during assembly, refer to the step-by-step manual. Ensure you are using the correct parts for each step. If problems persist, contact customer support for assistance.
