Air bed folds up when sleeping.

Hello I have been looking at all the blogs for a few weeks. I just purchased a 2009 Big Country 3355. This is our frist fiver. When sleeping on the air bed couch it wants to fold up. Am I not setting it up proper.

Hi 2009country,

Congratulations on your new-to-you Big Country and welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum. As you've probably already seen from reading posts, this is a great place to get your questions answered.

I'm sure you'll get some helpful suggestions shortly.

2009country, I had the same problem with mine at one time.
When the couch opens to the bed it swivels on two bolts. One on each side.
Once the bed is opened up some arms rest on two other bolts.
On mine, one of the nuts that holds one of those two bolts came off the frame. Those nuts are welded to the frame.
So I got a couple of slightly longer bolts and used jamb nuts to secure it back on the frame.
Take a look at yours to see if one or both of those bolts are loose.
I hope that made sense.

Peace
Dave

Thanks for the info. I will look at the arms and check the bolt's. We bought the Heartland after reading and doing a lot of research. After being in this site I think we made the right choice.
