Setup and Assembly

Assembly of the Eastridge Futon Set is required. It is recommended that two people perform the assembly. All necessary tools are included. The product may arrive in multiple boxes, potentially at separate times.

Assembly Steps:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully unpack all parts and hardware from the boxes. Verify that all components listed in the parts diagram are present.
2. Prepare Workspace: Clear a spacious area for assembly. Lay out all parts on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
3. Assemble Frame Sides: Attach the horizontal support beams to the vertical side panels. Important: Do not fully tighten bolts at this stage. Leave them loose to allow for adjustments.
4. Attach Back Deck: Connect the back deck to the assembled frame sides. Ensure proper alignment.
5. Attach Seat Deck: Connect the seat deck to the frame.
6. Final Tightening: Once all major components are in place and aligned, gradually tighten all bolts securely. Avoid over-tightening.
7. Place Mattress: Position the 8-inch futon mattress onto the assembled frame.

Operating Instructions

The Eastridge Futon Set features a three-position frame, allowing it to function as a sofa, a lounger, or a queen-size bed. Conversion typically requires two people due to the size and weight of the mattress and frame.

Converting Positions:

1. From Sofa to Lounger:
   • Grasp the front edge of the seat deck and lift slightly.
   • Push the seat deck forward until the backrest reclines to a comfortable lounging angle.
   • Ensure the frame locks into the lounger position.

2. From Lounger to Bed:
   • From the lounger position, lift the front edge of the seat deck again.
   • Continue pushing the seat deck forward and down until the backrest lays completely flat, forming a bed.
   • Ensure the frame is fully extended and stable.

Maintenance and Care

Mattress Care:

• The Microfiber Sussex Khaki cover is recommended for dry clean only.
• To minimize lumping and shifting of content, periodically rotate and flip the mattress.
• Address spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals.

Frame Care:

• Wipe the solid hardwood frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten if necessary.
• Keep the frame away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes to prevent wood damage.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your futon set.

Common Issues:

• Difficulty Converting Positions:
  • Ensure all assembly bolts are securely tightened, but not over-tightened, which can restrict movement.
  • Verify that the mattress is properly seated on the frame and not obstructing the mechanism.
  • Conversion may require two people for easier handling and leverage.
• Squeaking Noises:
  • Check all frame connections and tighten any loose bolts.
  • Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to moving parts if squeaking persists.
• Mattress Shifting:
  • Ensure the mattress is centered on the frame.
  • Consider using a non-slip mat between the mattress and the frame if shifting is excessive.

If you encounter issues not covered here, please refer to the support section for assistance.
