Setup and Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps to assemble your Modway Sage Full Metal Headboard. It is recommended to have two people for easier assembly.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft, and flat surface to prevent scratches or damage. Identify all components and hardware against the package contents list.
2. Attach Support Legs: Take one adjustable support leg and align its pre-drilled holes with the corresponding holes on one side of the main headboard frame. Insert the provided bolts through the holes, securing them with washers and nuts. Hand-tighten only at this stage. Repeat for the second support leg on the other side of the headboard frame.
3. Adjust Height: The headboard features seven mounting positions for height adjustment. Before fully tightening, slide the support legs up or down to select the desired height for your bed frame. Ensure the bolts are aligned with the chosen set of holes for your preferred height.
4. Attach to Bed Frame: Position the assembled headboard against your bed frame. Align the holes on the headboard's adjustable support legs with the corresponding mounting holes on your bed frame. Use appropriate bolts (typically provided with your bed frame, not the headboard) to securely attach the headboard to the bed frame.
5. Final Tightening: Once the headboard is properly aligned and securely attached to the bed frame, use the provided Allen wrench to fully tighten all bolts on both the headboard and the bed frame connections. Ensure all connections are firm and stable.

Operating Instructions

The Modway Sage Full Metal Headboard is designed for static use once assembled. Its primary adjustable feature is the height, which can be set during assembly or adjusted later.

Height Adjustment

The headboard offers seven different mounting positions to accommodate various bed frame heights and mattress thicknesses. To adjust the height after initial assembly:

1. Detach from Bed Frame: Carefully detach the headboard from your bed frame by loosening the bolts connecting them.
2. Loosen Support Leg Bolts: Loosen the bolts securing the adjustable support legs to the main headboard frame. Do not remove them completely.
3. Slide to New Height: Slide the support legs up or down to the desired new height, aligning the bolts with a different set of pre-drilled holes on the legs.
4. Re-secure Bolts: Re-tighten the bolts securing the support legs to the main headboard frame, ensuring they are firm.
5. Re-attach to Bed Frame: Re-position the headboard and re-attach it to your bed frame using the appropriate hardware. Ensure all connections are firm and stable.

Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and maintain the appearance of your Modway Sage Full Metal Headboard, please follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For general cleaning, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the powder-coated finish.
• Dusting: Regularly dust the headboard with a dry, soft cloth or a feather duster to prevent dust buildup.
• Inspection: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten any loose fasteners to maintain the headboard's stability and structural integrity.
• Placement: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or damage to the finish over time. Protect the headboard from extreme temperature changes and high humidity.
• Protection: If moving the headboard, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the legs or finish.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Modway Sage Full Metal Headboard, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

Headboard is unstable or wobbly:

• Ensure all assembly bolts, both on the headboard itself and where it connects to the bed frame, are fully tightened.
• Verify that the headboard is securely attached to your bed frame. If the bed frame has multiple mounting holes, ensure the headboard is aligned and secured to the most appropriate ones.
• Check if the bed frame itself is stable and not contributing to the wobbling.

Bolts do not fit or seem too short:

• Ensure you are using the correct bolts for each specific step as indicated in the assembly instructions.
• Please note that bolts for attaching the headboard to a bed frame are typically supplied with the bed frame, not the headboard. If your bed frame's bolts are incompatible or missing, you may need to acquire suitable hardware (e.g., longer bolts, different thread size) from a local hardware store.

Scratches or minor damage during assembly:

• Always assemble the headboard on a soft, protected surface to minimize the risk of scratches.
• For minor scratches on the black finish, touch-up paint specifically designed for metal furniture in a matching color may be used.
