Assembly Instructions

Assembly is required for this daybed. It is recommended that two adults assemble the unit. Follow the detailed instructions provided in your package step-by-step. Do not overtighten screws during initial assembly; tighten all fasteners securely once the frame is fully assembled.

General Assembly Steps:

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Lay out all components on a clean, soft surface (e.g., carpet or blanket) to prevent scratches. Verify all parts against the provided parts list.
2. Assemble the Main Daybed Frame: Connect the headboard, footboard, and side rails using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are firm and aligned.
3. Install Slats: Secure the wooden slats to the main daybed frame. Note: Some users have reported needing to drill pilot holes for slats. If you encounter this, measure accurately and use an appropriate drill bit to create pilot holes before securing the slats.
4. Assemble the Trundle Frame: Construct the pull-out trundle frame, ensuring the casters are properly attached for smooth movement.
5. Assemble Storage Drawers: Put together the two storage drawers, attaching the bottom panels and casters. Ensure the groove handles are correctly oriented.
6. Final Placement: Position the assembled daybed in its desired location. Insert the trundle and storage drawers into their respective positions under the main frame.

No box spring is required for this daybed, as the robust wooden slats provide adequate support for your mattress.

Care and Maintenance

• Regular Checks: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the wood finish to fade or crack.
