Plastic inserts may belocated inside the hole within the side rail to improve smoothglide movement of the side rail on the rod. If your crib usesa hand release mechanism, the rod must be guided throughthe hand release so that the notch in the rod engages withthe hand release lock. Next, guide the rod down through thespring. Then guide the rod down through the lower woodside hole. As the rod clears through the hole, slip the lowerspring onto the rod. Lower the rod further and guide throughthe lowest angle bracket hole. Return to the top of the rodand tighten the machine screw into the buried insert tosecure the rod to the headboard of the crib. Repeat for theremaining rods.
