3. Assembly Instructions
Follow these steps carefully to assemble your Amisco Rocky Kids Twin Platform Bed. It is recommended to have two people for assembly.
Step 3.1: Attach Side Rails to Headboard and Footboard
- Unpack all components and lay them out on a clean, soft surface.
- Identify the headboard and footboard. Note the attachment points for the side rails.
- Align one side rail with the corresponding attachment points on the headboard and footboard.
- Secure the side rail using the provided bolts, washers, and nuts. Hand-tighten initially.
- Repeat for the second side rail.
- Once both side rails are in place, use the Allen key to fully tighten all bolts. Do not overtighten.
Step 3.2: Install Bed Slats and Adjust Height
The Amisco Rocky bed features a variable position bed frame, allowing you to adjust the mattress height to 7'', 9.5'', or 14'' from the floor. This is ideal for platform bed arrangements or to increase under-bed storage.
- Locate the bed slat supports on the inside of the side rails. These supports will have multiple pre-drilled holes for height adjustment.
- Decide on your desired bed height:
- 7 inches: Lowest position, suitable for a mattress only.
- 9.5 inches: Mid-level position.
- 14 inches: Highest position, maximizing under-bed storage.
- Insert the bed slats into the chosen height position on the side rail supports. Ensure they are evenly spaced and securely seated.
- If your slats require fastening, use the provided hardware to secure them to the side rails.

4. Operating Instructions (Height Adjustment)
The Amisco Rocky bed allows for easy adjustment of the mattress support height. To change the height:
- Remove the mattress and any bedding from the bed frame.
- Carefully lift and remove the bed slats from their current position.
- Re-insert the bed slats into the desired height setting (7'', 9.5'', or 14'') on the side rail supports. Ensure all slats are securely seated and evenly distributed.
- Replace the mattress and bedding.
Caution: Always remove the mattress before adjusting slat height. Ensure slats are fully secured in their new position before placing the mattress back on the frame.
5. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Amisco Rocky Kids Twin Platform Bed, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the baked powder coating.
- Finish Protection: The bed features a nontoxic, environmentally safe baked powder coating designed for scratch resistance. While durable, avoid sharp objects that could scratch the finish.
- Fastener Check: Periodically (every 3-6 months) check all bolts and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Movement: When moving the bed, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent stress on the frame and potential floor damage.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Amisco Rocky Kids Twin Platform Bed, refer to the following common solutions:
- Bed feels wobbly: Check all bolts and fasteners. Ensure they are securely tightened. If the bed was recently moved, re-check all connections.
- Squeaking noises: Squeaking can often be resolved by tightening all frame bolts. If the issue persists, ensure the bed slats are properly seated and not rubbing against the frame. Applying a small amount of lubricant (e.g., silicone spray) to contact points between slats and frame can sometimes help, but ensure it is safe for the finish.
- Difficulty adjusting height: Ensure the mattress and bedding are removed before attempting to adjust slat height. Verify that the slats are not jammed and are being inserted into the correct pre-drilled holes.
- Missing parts: If you discover missing parts during assembly, do not proceed. Contact Amisco customer support immediately for assistance.
