Step-by-step assembly
Step 1
Push 8 dowels (101350) into the rail ends of both long sides.
One dowel in each end of every top and bottom rail.
Step 2
Fit both long sides onto one end panel.
The dowels go into the holes in the legs.
Step 3
Put 4 barrel nuts (100514) into the rails.
Turn the slot with a flat screwdriver so the bolt can go in.

Push 4 bolts (130718) down through the base’s corner blocks.
Check the corner blocks face as shown in the manual, step 4.

The end panel you just fixed lies on the floor.

Tips & safety
- Two base heights. Upper position for a small baby; move the base to the lower holes once your baby can stand up (manual p. 10–12).
- Toddler bed later on. With the base in the lower position, one long side can be swapped for a low rail — see the manual, p. 13–19.
