Gas strut/piston best use:
·
Use caution when operating - always use two hands.
·
Only attempt to close the ottoman frame, once the mattress has been placed on the frame.
·
The thicker side of the cylinder should be above the thinner side- this will increase longevity of
the part.
·
Only attempt to close the frame with two hands from the footboard side, slowly increasing the
pressure until the frame starts moving downwards.
·
Closing the frame for the first time may be difficult, as the cylinder needs cycling and
lubricating. After closing for the first time, open and close a further 5 timers.
·
If the frame is stuck open and unable to be closed, we recommend getting assistance from a
second person, both applying equal pressure from each side of the footboard until the frame
closes, this may require more force than expected. Stop applying pressure if the metal frame
begins to warp – contact customer services at this point.
Top tips:
·
Do not attempt to close the gas strut/piston by hand, it can only be compressed once added to
the frame
·
Ensure the frame can move freely before adding thew gas struts/pistons
·
Check the frame is fully square, being offset can cause the frame to catch on the side rail
