Setup and Installation
This kit is designed for easy conversion of your compatible DaVinci full-size crib. Ensure you have the original crib assembly instructions for reference, as some steps may involve disassembling parts of the crib.
- Prepare the Crib: Carefully remove the front rail of your full-size crib according to its original assembly instructions. Retain all hardware, as some may be reused.
- Position the Toddler Rail: Align the DaVinci M11999 Toddler Bed Conversion Kit rail with the designated attachment points on the crib's headboard and footboard. The rail replaces the removed front crib rail.
