Setup Instructions
Assembly requires two adults. Clear a spacious area for assembly and keep all small parts out of reach of children.
Step 1: Unpack and Identify Components
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Refer to the parts list in your included manual to identify each piece.
Step 2: Assemble the Lower Bunk Frame
Begin by connecting the side rails and end frames for the lower bunk. Hand-tighten all bolts initially. Ensure the frame is square before fully tightening.

Step 3: Assemble the Upper Bunk Frame
Repeat the process for the upper bunk frame, connecting its side rails and end frames. Again, hand-tighten bolts first.

Step 4: Connect Upper and Lower Bunks
Carefully lift the assembled upper bunk frame and align it with the posts of the lower bunk frame. Secure them together using the provided bolts and hardware. This step typically requires two people.

Operating Instructions
- Accessing Upper Bunk: Always use the integrated ladder to access the upper bunk. Face the ladder when climbing up or down.
- Movement: Avoid excessive rocking or jumping on either bunk, as this can compromise the bed's stability and structural integrity.
- Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly on the bunks.
- Clearance: Ensure there is adequate head clearance for the person on the lower bunk.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Clean the metal frame with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically (e.g., monthly or quarterly) inspect all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary.
- Damage Check: Regularly check for any signs of wear, damage, or structural fatigue. Discontinue use if any significant damage is found and contact customer support for replacement parts or advice.
Troubleshooting
