Pull the circular tab down/in the direction of the string tails. It'll unlock the mechanism and slide to loosen the string.

Just untie the string and pull the plastic part (lock) that holds the string, down. I tie the string in a bow so it is easy to untie.

It's very easy to do. You just pull down on the little tab that holds the string in place and it loosens it up. These sheets are the best. I never want to be without them. I searched long and hard for a solution to this problem and these work wonders.

Just pull the tab, and it will unlock, then you can pull the whole thing and losen yhe sheet.

There is a thin kind of sheet tied around it. You can take it off and wash it I guess. I just wrap and extra sheet around the whole bed to keep it clean

There is a video on the sunny heatlt web site , its quite simple you unscrew the screws on the bottom a square sllides ot between the to sides you have to unscrew the knob that is used to tighten and pull out another part pulling upwards after all is off you will see there is a plastic buckle with a lever which is what is used to tighten or loosen , careful not to pull upwards to hard the plastic part can crack, its very similar to the ones used on backpacks , any way lift the lever and pull the belt as hard as you can and then lower it so the little belt doesnt slip back . put eberything back together

pull up the (disengage) the lock. I have to tilt the stool and push one of the legs toward the other. I usually do this with my foot. It takes a bit of pressure to close it and I find that this works best for me.

I simply unzipped it and washed it in the washing machine. Air dry it or dry it on low heat though. I forgot to turn the temp down on one of the three covers (I own 3 of these beds) and it was a bit difficult to get it back on.

Just throw thwm in with your other sheets. Hot water, soap & bleach if u want. And I also use fabric Softener.

I have had no problem getting the sheets out of the container. You have to pull the first sheet from the middle and glide it through the slit. Replace the lid and the other sheets should follow suit.

push down to remove cover and slide it off. Let me know if you still have trouble.

You can take the mattress out of the sleeve, but the sleeve is sewn to the cot.

The way I do it is put the fitted sheet on the mattress then put one end of the strap on the elastic of the sheet on the top of the mattress, stretch it diagonally across (under the end of the mattress) and clip the other end of the strap to the elastic of the sheet on the side. If you are facing your mattress from the bottom the straps should form a triangle: the straps being the bottom and the two sides of the sheet's elastic the other two sides of the triangle. I know this might be hard to understand ( a picture would do it better) but I hope this helps!

Just pull it straight out or maybe try twisting a little to left or right as you're pulling it out. It has a little bit of tension to keep it in place but a good tug will release it.

If this doesn't stay in place, add velcro to the bottom (at least a foot deep under the mattress) either by sewing or applying Liquid Sew (Let dry before placing under mattress). Velcro will help anchor it to the mattress and it's easily removable for washing. I've seen a pair that velcro together, but then just pull them from one side to remove it.

You've got me there, Steve. I just throw mine in the washer with regular detergent then into the dryer with fabric softener sheets. They come out fine. If you have more than one pad, why don't you try the S20 Laundry Detergent sheets (I have never heard of these sheets) on it an see what happens. One thinkg you might do is change the speed of the washing machine. I tend to wash mine on a gentler cycle the first few times just to see how they do. If I have been of no help (which won't be a surprise to me), try emailing the manufacturer and asking them. Personally, I think you are safe using your sheets but try them on one first...just to be safe. Polly You've got me there, Steve.

try clipping one end to the fitted sheet corner at the bottom, then drag the strap along the bottom and other side of the mattress to the diagonal corner opposite and clip there.

The cover cannot be removed without opening a seam; there's no zipper. However, the entire bed can be thrown in the wash safely. I wash mine with the sheets, and throw it in the dryer, too. No problems so far.

Pull firmly and evenly. Completely ease up on finger hold. Let string go back into holder. If you hold it too long, hold top upside down in one hand and wind back up with other hand.
