Package Contents

Verify that all components are present before beginning assembly:

• Side Rails (2)
• Keyslot Cross Arms (2)

Setup and Assembly

Assembly of the Leggett & Platt Sentry Bed Frame is designed to be straightforward. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratching.
2. Attach Legs to Side Rails: Connect the legs with glides to the side rails. The locking legs are designed to create a triple-thick steel layer at the corners for enhanced stability. Ensure they are recessed for safety.
3. Connect Cross Arms: Insert the keyslot cross arms into the side rails. These cross arms allow for size adjustment and lock securely in place, providing solid support. Adjust the frame to the desired Twin or Full size.
4. Secure Side Rail Connections: The 78 Series clamp system facilitates easy assembly and offers infinite adjustability for a precise fit. Ensure all clamps are tightened securely.

5. Attach Headboard Brackets: If you plan to attach a headboard, secure the riveted, extra-wide headboard brackets to the frame. These brackets are designed to connect to virtually all standard headboards.

6. Verify Stability: Once assembled, gently shake the frame to ensure all connections are tight and the frame is stable.

Operating and Usage

The Sentry bed frame is designed to support a Twin or Full-sized mattress and box spring. Ensure the frame is placed on a level surface. The integrated plastic glides provide support, protect your flooring, and allow for easy movement when necessary. Place your box spring and mattress directly onto the assembled frame.

Maintenance

• Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect all bolts, clamps, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten any loose fasteners as needed.
• Cleaning: Clean the metal frame with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools that could damage the finish.
• Glide Check: Ensure the plastic glides are intact and functioning correctly to protect your floors.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking Noise:

If the bed frame produces squeaking noises, check all bolts, clamps, and connections for tightness. Ensure the frame is placed on a completely level surface. Lubricating moving parts with a silicone-based spray may also help.

Instability:

If the frame feels unstable, re-verify that all components are correctly assembled and locked into place according to the assembly instructions. Ensure the cross arms are properly engaged in the keyslots.

Headboard Does Not Fit:

The riveted headboard brackets are designed to be compatible with most standard headboards. If your headboard does not fit, check its mounting hole dimensions against the bracket's slots. Some headboards may require adapter plates (not included).
