Olela Murphy Bed Queen with Desk (Model 001) Instruction Manual

1. Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Olela Murphy Bed Queen with Desk. This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient use of your new furniture. Please read all instructions carefully before assembly and operation.

1.1 Important Safety Information

• The Murphy bed unit MUST be securely anchored to wall studs or concrete walls. DO NOT install directly into hollow drywall alone.
• Do not operate the bed without a mattress in place. The mattress acts as a natural counterweight for proper function.
• Be cautious of sharp edges when using the desk and during assembly.
• Always assemble and use the product as instructed to prevent injury or damage.
• Assembly requires two adults.

For additional safety guidelines and product information, please refer to the manufacturer's website or contact customer support.

2. Setup and Assembly

This section guides you through the assembly process of your Olela Murphy Bed Queen with Desk. Ensure all parts are present before beginning.

2.1 Unpacking and Parts Check

Your Murphy bed system ships in 4 separate boxes (3 for the bed, 1 for the desk mechanism). Carrier schedules may vary, so boxes may arrive on different days. Please wait for all 4 boxes to arrive before starting assembly.

Carefully unpack all components and compare them against the included parts list (not provided in this document, refer to your packaging). Report any missing or damaged parts immediately.

2.2 Wall Mounting Requirements

The Murphy bed unit MUST be securely anchored to a sturdy wall structure. Acceptable wall types include:

• Concrete Wall
• Brick Wall
• Wood Studs (ensure mounting into the center of the stud)

DO NOT attempt to install the unit onto drywall alone without proper stud or concrete anchoring. Failure to secure the unit properly can result in serious injury or damage.

2.3 Mattress Requirements

For optimal performance and safety, your mattress must meet the following criteria:

• Fits standard Queen mattresses.
• Maximum thickness: 10 inches.
• Minimum weight: 55 lbs. The mattress weight is crucial for the hydraulic lift system to function correctly as a counterweight.

Note: Mattress is not included with this Murphy bed system.

3. Operating Instructions

Learn how to safely and efficiently transform your Olela Murphy Bed Queen with Desk from a workstation to a comfortable bed.

3.1 Transforming from Desk to Bed

1. Ensure the desk surface is clear of items taller than 4 inches. The self-leveling pivot desk allows items up to 4 inches in height to remain on the desk as the bed is lowered.
2. Gently pull the bed frame downwards from the top. The 4-hydraulic-piston system will assist in a smooth, feather-light transition.
3. Continue lowering until the bed frame is fully horizontal and resting on its support legs.

The transformation from work to sleep can be completed in approximately 3 seconds, without the need to clear your workspace.

3.2 Transforming from Bed to Desk

1. Ensure no items are obstructing the bed's upward movement.
2. Lift the bed frame from the bottom. The hydraulic system will assist in raising the bed smoothly.
3. Continue lifting until the bed is fully upright and securely latched into its cabinet position. The desk will automatically pivot to a horizontal position.

4. Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Olela Murphy Bed.

5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Murphy bed.

5.1 Bed Does Not Lower/Lift Smoothly

• Check Mattress Weight: Ensure your mattress meets the minimum weight requirement of 55 lbs. An underweight mattress will not provide sufficient counterweight for the hydraulic system.
• Obstructions: Verify there are no objects obstructing the bed's path during transformation.
• Hydraulic System: Inspect the 4-piston hydraulic system for any visible damage or leaks. If issues persist, contact customer support.

5.2 Desk Is Not Horizontal When Bed is Lowered

• The self-leveling pivot desk is designed to remain horizontal. If it's not, check for any obstructions or misalignments in the desk mechanism.
• Ensure the bed is fully lowered and locked into position.

5.3 Bed Feels Unstable or Wobbles

• Wall Anchoring: Re-verify that the unit is securely anchored to wall studs or concrete walls as per the setup instructions. Loose anchoring is a primary cause of instability.
• Fasteners: Check all assembly screws and bolts for tightness.
• Level Surface: Ensure the floor where the bed is installed is level.
