Placed the two half adjustable beds on the platform. Made sure there is clearance of 1.5 inches from the edge of the bed to the side table so when the back of the bed is raised, it will not graze the side table. Removed the middle slats to start running the white transformer cables across the platform and under the slats in the center of the bed to connect with the 120 V outlet above the stone table. Customer plans to provide another power source from the storage compartment under the platform. (They just purchased this Tiffin three days ago! and on their way to the East Coast after the installation at 8 pm).
Notice that we have made sure there is a 1 inch plus air-gap between the two beds so they will not rub each other and provide wiggle room for installation.
Snaking the white transformer cables from the left bed across the right bed to the power source which is on the right wall (not shown). The white box is the low profile transformer for the motor. It will be secured so it will not slide (see below).
You can see the side metal stopper near the shoulder region is over 1.5 inch from the stone table top so the back of the raised bed will not graze the stone table.
Strapping down one of two white transformer boxes which are low profile such that they can be installed under the center slats that do not raise.
A perspective of the work space and parts. The slides on both sides of the coach have been moved out to create the work space. Note that before we screwed down the bed frames, we made sure the foot section would not graze the cabinet handles by moving both sliding sections in. In this photo, the frames are not in their final position.
Completed wire arrangement and strapping down the transfer.
Similar air gap of 1.5 inch plus from the left metal side stopper from the stone table.
Temporary source of power from the right side of the bed. Customer plans to add another power source that is less visible and likely inside the storage compartment under the platform.
Installed the two side stoppers at the foot and shoulder locations.
Installed the foot stoppers on top the foot wood ledge. Location of the foot stopper is determined AFTER placing the mattress on top of the bed and locating the final mattress position with the foot stopper. The mattress is then removed so the foot stopper can be screwed on the wood ledge – as shown above.
The lower platform is raised normally using the standard struts from Tiffin. Before raising it, the backs of both beds were electrically lifted so they would not interfere with the lifting motion.
Top lift and lower the platform, just place the hands as shown above. These struts were adequate to hold the platform in the raised position.
Both beds with the backs raised. The sliders for the the double slats are set to be in the firmer settings. Moving them closer together makes the double slat support softer.
The adjustable bed with the thigh/knee sections raised.
