WARNING
If you fail to properly secure
the recess to the wall or floor,
it could be pulled down and
serious injury could result.
If your wall construction is such that the system cannot or should not be attached to
the wall (see step 1 on page 9), follow the floor mounting instructions on page 9
through 12 instead.
Hardware is included with the EUROBED®for attaching to most wall constructions.
Follow the instructions on pages 6 to 8 to assure proper installation.
Hardware is not included for floor attachment.
supported by the weight of the cabinet
plus the attachment of the cabinets to the
wall. It is therefore very important that the
recess / cabinets system be anchored
securely to the wall, as high off the floor
as possible. Use the SICO wall-mounting
fixture provided with the bed.
Wall attachment
required here.
Custom cabinets must be strong enough to
transfer the counterbalancing requirements
from the bed support to the rear wall.
The cabinet and recess sides must be at least 3/4” thick, of wood or woodlike material.
Drywall is not an acceptable material for securing the mounting plates of the bed
mechanism.

If the bed is being installed in a
SICO EUROBED®Recess
(according to instructions
#108450-04), assemble the
recess and secure it to the wall,
then skip to page 14.
If the bed is being installed in a
custom cabinet, begin on page 6.
IMPORTANT: When installing
the EUROBED®make sure
the ceiling clearance is
greater than 93”. For the
EUROBED®24/7 regular
length bed make sure the ceiling height is 95” or greater.
For the queen and extra long
bed the ceiling height should
be 100” or greater.

NOTE: The minimum recess
depth is 18” for a standard
mattress thickness of 10-1/2”;
add 1” to the minimum recess
depth for each additional 1”
of mattress thickness.
For thicker bed faces: the
standard bed face is 3/8”. For
thicker bed faces (raised
panel, trim, etc.), mount flush
with front of recess, add the
difference between the actual
bed face thickness and 3/8”
to the minimum depth.
IMPORTANT
For safety, you must use the correct fasteners when anchoring the system to the wall or floor.

SECURE RECESS TO WALL
1. Recheck that the unit is level,
plumb, and square. Adjust the
leveling feet as necessary.
2. Determine the exact location of
all wall studs behind the
recess. Use a stud finder
(preferably the electronic type).
The counterbalancing of a
EUROBED® is supported by the
weight of the header and cabinets
plus their attachment to the wall. It
is therefore very important that the
header/cabinet system be
anchored securely to the wall, as
high off the floor as possible.
If the system cannot or should not
be attached to the wall (see step 1
on page 9), follow the floormounting instructions on pages 9
through 11 instead.
WARNING
Failure to securely
anchor the system
according to instructions can allow it to
tip over when the
bed is operated which could cause
serious injury.
3. Attach the SICO®wall-mounting
fixture to the bed-recess verticals:
a. Hold the fixture flush with
the top and back edges of
the verticals, then push it
straight back against the
wall.
b. Hold the fixture in this posi-
tion, and mark the location
of the screw holes.
c. Drill 1/8” dia. pilot holes in
both verticals, 3/4” deep.
d. Attach the fixture to the
inside of the verticals with
four screws (part number
103745 ) at each end.
If the fixture must be moved more
than 3/4” back beyond the edge of
th vertical (because the wall is very
uneven or out of plumb), contact
the factory before installing.
The wood screws (Part No.
103745) supplied for attaching the
SICO wall-mounting fixture and the
EUROBED®mechanism plate are
intended for verticals which are 1”
or more thick. If your verticals are
less then 1” thick, install washers
under the screw heads as necessary.
