• Step 1:

  • Inspect contents and remove changing station from the shipping container and check for any freight damage. If damage is found, please call Koala Kare Products’ Customer Service at 888.733.3456.
  • Identify the best location for installing the unit.

• Step 2:

  • Remove the bed and chassis from the box. Open the main unit by pulling up on the frame and remove the plastic liner dispenser. Set it to one side. Fig. 1

  • Make sure you have taken into consideration the operating clearance of 9 3/8″ (238mm) on both sides of the exposed chassis and 21 1/8″ (537mm) from wall surface when open.
    For Wood Stud Wall

  • Measure from the floor 37 7/16″ (951mm) on stud center and mark the wall. The mounting holes are designed for 16″ (406mm) stud centers. Ensure the locations you have marked for the mounting holes are level before drilling. Fig. 2 Drill pilot holes for keyhole mounting using a 1/8″ regular drill bit.

  • If the wall has wooden studs that are not on 16″ (406mm) centers, you will need to use toggles to secure one side of the unit. The other side should be secured to the stud using the screws provided. You must allow for space inside the wall for the toggles to turn. This will vary depending on the toggles used. For Masonry or Tile over Stud Wall

  • Use a 7/32″ (5mm) masonry drill bit for the pilot hole until you hit the stud. Change bit to 1/8″ (3mm) regular drill bit.
    For Metal Stud or Concrete Block

  • If the wall has metal studs or an underlying surface of concrete block, you will need to use toggles to secure one side of the unit. The other side should be secured to the stud using the screws provided. You must allow for space inside the wall for the toggles to turn. This will vary depending on the toggles used.

• Step 3:

  • Mount bed and chassis by screwing two of the mounting screws into the pilot holes leaving 1/4″ (6.4mm) exposed to allow keyhole slots to be easily mounted over the screw heads. Fig. 3
  • Place chassis over screws. Fig. 4
  • After securing the unit using the keyhole slots, verify that the unit is level. Tighten top two screws so that they are flush with the wall.
  • Use the four lower holes as a guide to mark and drill pilot holes. Use remaining four screws and four washers to complete installation of bed and mounting bracket. Insert washers over lower four screws. Fig. 5
  • All six screws and four washers must be properly mounted to the chassis.

• Step 4:

  • To install liner dispenser ensure liner dispenser is free from damage. Remove key, unlock, and open liner dispenser lid. This will expose liner dispenser mounting holes.
  • Line up dispenser mounting holes onto chassis and secure with the four screws provided. Fig. 6 Close and lock the liner dispenser door.

• Step 5:

  • Clean work area and inspect unit to ensure it opens and closes smoothly.
