  • Page 2: Table Of Contents

    The straps retract into the bed base, concealing the lifting system in the retracted position, permitting OEMs more floor plan design freedom. The nearly silent Bed Lift system is operated by a single motor that controls four support mounts to raise and lower the bed at 58.4 mm (2.3 in) per second. The 363 kg (800 lbs) capacity system can be customized in both size and configuration to maximize space in any motorhome, towable RV or truck cab floor plan design.

    • The bed lifting system must never be used while the vehicle is running. • It is forbidden to start the bed lift system manually with disconnected wires from motor unit to control unit. • Should the mechanism not work, do NOT use the bed and ask for assistance at the next service center.

    NOTE: For the drive shaft to fit the dimensions of the bed lift and to install the motor, the drive shaft must be cut and material removed for the motor to be installed on the drive shaft.
  • Page 5 Cut and remove 120 mm (4.7 in) (Fig. 2, orange lines) from the drive shaft (Fig. 2A) including the excess drive shaft, measurement from step 1, for the drive shaft centering brackets (Fig. 3A) and the motor (Fig. 3B) to be installed on the drive shaft. The motor (Fig. 3B) has to be between the two drive shafts (Fig.
  • Page 6 When cutting the drive shaft to measure, leave a minimum of 5 mm (0.21 in), maximum 10 mm (0.40 in), distance between each shaft and the motor (Fig. 4A). Fig. 4 After the total measurement has been determined, and making sure at least one side is 185 mm (7.3 in), mark the area the motor will be installed and cut and remove part of the drive shaft.
  • Page 7 NOTE: Refer to figure 6 for motor and advanced control system (ACS) parts and assembly orientation. Slide the ACS module holder (Fig. 6K) onto the long drive shaft end (Fig. 6G). Make sure the ACS module housing (Fig. 6I) faces away from the motor (Fig. 6O). Apply Super Lube®...
  • Page 8 14. Insert the ACS module (Fig. 7B) into the ACS module holder (Fig. 7A). Make sure the ACS module key (Fig. 7C) is aligned with the ACS module keyway (Fig. 7D) in the ACS module holder. Push and turn the ACS module (Fig.
  • Page 9 18. Measure from the outside end rail to the end of the drive shaft header center brackets. There should be a 57.2 mm (2 1/4 in) gap (Fig. 9) from the end of the rail to the edge of the drive shaft header center bracket. Move the long and short drive shaft header center brackets into place so that both sides are even.

    21. Fasten the motor mounting bracket (Fig. 11A) to the motor mount support (Fig. 11B) with two 4.2 mm x 13 mm screws (Fig. 11C). On the opposite end of the motor mounting bracket install two 4.2 mm x 13 mm screws through the bracket and into the end rail (Fig. 11D). Fig.
  • Page 11 Belt Brackets NOTE: The proper belt bracket locations will depend on the type of bed lift configuration and where the motor is installed. NOTE: Keep a minimum distance from each belt bracket (Fig. 12B) to the side of the bed (Fig. 12C) to avoid tip-over when under load.

    (Fig. 12A) between the two belts on each side of the bed lift. Install the stabilizer guide track brackets (Fig. 12D) as close as possible to the side of the bed (Fig. 12C) to avoid a tip-over when under load.
  • Page 13 Locate the belt mounting assembly (Fig. 20). Unscrew the nuts (Fig. 21C) and slide the belt plates (Fig. 21B) off the belt bracket (Fig. 21A) and set aside. Do this for all four belt brackets. Fig. 20 Fig. 21 If installing on a unit with aluminum backing in the wall, use a minimum size of #10 x 1" self-drilling screws.
  • Page 14 Install the belt mounting brackets at the marked locations from step 7, onto wall of the unit with nine #10 x 1" screws. Place the bottom side of the bed frame down on level supporting saw horses at the approximate fully extended position.
  • Page 15: Stabilizer Channel Guides

    Stabilizer Channel Guides Stabilizer Channel Guides have different properties depending on the shape, but generally they should be mounted furthest away from each other, and on the side of the bed facing the front of the vehicle. This is because it’s the safest position, since the mass of the bed during braking or crash is at least partially supported by the internal structure and furniture of the vehicle.
  • Page 16: Key Switch

    If installing on a unit with wood backing in the wall, use a minimum size of #10 x 1" wood screws. The Bed Lift switch can be installed in the wall of the unit next to the bed frame or, if installing padded rails to the bed frame, in the padded rails.

    Wiring Harness Connections To connect the wire harness to components refer to Wiring Diagram (Fig. 30) and do as follows: Install the main wire harness power controller's connector (Fig. 30B) to the power controller's male connector (Fig. 30A). Install the main wire harness ACS (Advanced Control System) connector (Fig. 30E) to the ACS module connector (Fig.

  • Page 19: Setting The Acs Stop Procedure

    If the bed lift stops too low, turn the white screw (Fig. 31B) in the ACS module counterclockwise. This will allow the bed lift to move higher. If the bed lift stops too high, turn the white screw (Fig. 31B) clockwise until the bed lift stops lower.

    Make sure the bed lift is in the highest retracted position. Install the safety belt harness to the bed and ceiling on both sides of the bed.
  • Page 22: Operation

    Press and hold the UP arrow-shaped button (Fig. 37A) on the keypad. A green LED light (Fig. 37C) on the keypad will turn on in the direction the bed is moving. The bed lift will keep moving until it reaches the pre-set stop position.
  • Page 23: Manual Override

    Always disconnect from power source before performing any operation on the bed lifting system. To raise or lower the bed lift in case of emergency, it is possible to operate the system manually. Insert the provided crank device (Fig. 38A) into the motor (Fig. 38B).
