Components for the Left-hand Bed Section

Step 1

Retrieve your two Ladder Name Plates from Stage 01 and Stage 09. To tell which is which, the left-hand Plate has shorter white brackets than the right-hand Plate, as shown:

Fit the left-hand Ladder Name Plate to the side of the Left-hand Bed Section, aligning the screw holes, as shown:

Secure the Plate to the Bed Section with four (4) Type C screws:

Step 2

Fit the D-shaped pin of the Spotlight into the matching hole at this location on the Left-hand Bed Section:

Thoughts
