Hi, this is Candice with The Sleep Shop, and today we're going to show you how to install
the 515-3.
This is a full-to-queen converter rail with 3 center supports.
Now, whenever you get this, it's going to come with directions for the 515 with only
one center support, so the directions are actually a little bit different than the ones
they give you.
So, we're going to show you how to do that right now.
So these are the contents of the 515-3 package.
You will get 2 bed rails and each of them have a center support on them, you will also
get two pieces that make up the 3rd center support, 3 c-clamps, 4 small wing nuts, 3
large wing nuts, 6 bolts, 4 washers, 2 lock nuts, 3 threaded legs, and four retainer brackets.
We also suggest grabbing a pair of pliers and a screw driver because the lock nuts can
be difficult to tighten.
Okay so, the first thing we're going to do is take one of the threaded feet and one of
the larger wing nuts, and your wing nut will go on facing upward, like this, and you're
just going to want to get that down a pretty good ways, that way you're not having to do
this while you're trying to assemble everything.
Then the next thing you're going to do is take the threaded foot, now I've already got
the plastic insert in here, this is really simple to you just put it in, may require
a hammer to get it all the way down in there and that's fine.
Then you're going to take your threaded leg, and you're just going to go a good ways down
in here.
This bed isn't too far off the floor so I'm going to put it in pretty far.
Then you're going to want to go ahead and do this with the other 2 supports, okay.
So we're going to go ahead and put the rail on, this is going to look upside down to most
of you if you're not familiar with it.
This is suppose to be flat on the top as opposed to the "L" shape that you're probably used
to.
So, we're going to hook this in, it's in the footboard, and then hook it in your headboard,
and then the next part is going to be our center support, which you're going to swing
out from each side.
Take your cclamp, and slide it on just like this, slide it up out of the way and then
these pieces are going to overlap.
Bring your c-clamp down, and then you are just going to tighten this pretty much as
tight as you can, you wanna get this to where it's really going to hold these two pieces
together.
Then, you take your foot and just let it down all the way to the floor.
Now we want this to be firm to the floor, cause this is where your support comes from.
Once you have it firm to the floor, go ahead and just spin your wing nut up until it is
up as far as it will go like that.
The you're going to come and do the same thing with the bottom piece.
The c-clamp once again is going to go on just like that, slide the cclamp there and tighten.
Okay, and tighten it to the floor and the wing nut, spins up.
So now we're ready to assemble the middle center support.
We're going to line it up with the hole here in the middle, put your bolt through and try
to tighten that.
Now, these are lock nuts, that's one thing to know about these.
I'm just getting it to where it's on there as tight as I can get it with my hand and
then I'm going to use pliers and a screwdriver to tighten it.
So the next piece is going to go over here and we'll do the same thing.
There's a hole in the center here, drop that bolt in.
So I'm just going to take my pliers and grab a hold of that, and I've just got a flat head
screw driver I'm going to use to tighten this bolt.
Once again, we need to do the same thing with our C-Clamp, sliding it on like so, and then
we're just going to tighten that.
Okay so now we are going to go ahead and put our "L" brackets on, which is going to allow
the queen size bedding to overlap and come out.
We're not going to tighten this all the way yet, we're just going to put it in loosely.
The tightening of this will come after you put your box spring on.
So go ahead and put a washer down, put a bolt through and your wing nut will go underneath.
And this can still slide back and forth to make sure that your specific box spring is
going to be able to fit and then that can be tightened around it.
And we're going to repeat this will all four corners.
At this point, all that you need to do is go ahead and sit your boxspring on it, adjust
the L Brackets to where they're fitting tightly around your box spring, and tighten up each
of the four wingnuts, then you are ready to go!
