Screw the center support legs into the center support rail, with the metal T-nuts facing upward.

Place the center support rail inside the bed frame. Adjust the glides on the center support legs as needed, ensuring the legs stand straight and are flush to the floor. Check to ensure the zipped panels are closed.
