COMPASS HEALTH PB6034 Assembly, Installation And Operating Instructions page 2

To ensure proper bed rail installation, arrows on crossbrace decal MUST point to
center of bed.
The outer telescoping tube of the bed rail MUST be positioned at the head end of
the bed to prevent a pinch point when raising/lowering bed.
To reduce the risk of entrapment make certain that the crossbraces DO NOT
exceed the width of the mattress. Mattress MUST fit bed frame and side bed rails
snugly to reduce the risk of entrapment.
Unless the bed rail is in the lowest position, ensure that the spring loaded knobs fully
protrude through the same respective adjustment hole of each bed rail tube. This
ensures that the bed rail is securely locked in position and an even height
adjustment is achieved (The lowest position for the bed rail occurs when the bed rail
rests against the bed rail stop. Spring loaded pins DO NOT engage into an
adjustment hole when the bed rail in the lowest position.)
Install bed rails fully extended on bed. DO NOT use full length bed rails as half rails.
Installing the Crossbraces
NOTE: READ AND UNDERSTAND WARNINGS before proceeding with Installing the
Crossbraces on page 2.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 1 on page 3.
1. Remove the mattress from the bed.
2. Place the bed in the flat position and position one crossbrace between the sixth and
seventh springs at the head end of the bed frame (Detail "A").
NOTE: If the bed frame contains BLACK springs at the sixth and seventh spring locations at the
head end of the bed, position the crossbrace between these springs.
3. When holding either end of the crossbrace assembly, turn the barrels so plunger knobs
are on top (Detail "A").
NOTE: Ensure the long end of the barrel faces the center of the bed with the decal to the center of
bed as shown in FIGURE 1. If long end faces the opposite way, rotate crossbrace 180°.
4. Position the bed hooks so they are on the bottom side of the crossbrace (Detail "B").
5. Perform one of the following:
• Standard Hardware Installation - Attach one bed hook onto the bed spring angle
iron and push in on the spring loaded bed rail until you are able to attach the
opposite end to the bed spring angle iron (Detail "B").
NOTE: Ensure plunger pins are facing the center of the bed.
• Optional Hardware Installation - Perform the following steps:
i. Attach wingnuts to bed hooks.
ii. Tighten until the wingnut reaches the bed spring angle iron.
