Convert to toddler bed

We have a Pali spa crib, and we thought it was supposed to convert to a toddler bed.  Where can I get instructions on how to do that?  Do I need some additional parts?

    I am also looking for guidance on how this crib converts into a toddler bed. I do not have extra parts and don't recall receiving special instructions.

They do have answers on their website, you may want to check your printed or online crib instructions to remind yourself how you put the crib together, too.

I found the answers here:
http://www.pali-design.com/index.php?path=customer_services&template=faq&section=customer_services&subsection=faq&page=faq

i've pasted them below. You can make it a toddler bed without a side rail just by removing the movable side of your crib, and you can install the side rail instead of the movable side if you want it to look a little more finished and help keep your child from rolling out of the bed.

FAQ

How to convert a crib into a toddler bed
To convert a crib into a toddler bed you must loosen the two front gold bolts left and right side of the crib and remove the dropside (the front gate that goes up and down). After removing the dropside be very careful that you tighten back your two gold bolts.

How to install the streight rail (toddler rail)
To install a streight (toddler) rail loosen the two front gold bolts left and right side of the crib and remove the dropside, once you have removed the dropside replace with the streight rail. Always be very careful and make sure you tighten back your two gold bolts in the front.

Most of the time, witht the crib fully assembled, a toddler bed conversion is very simple.

Does your crib's drop side come off? If you look at the bottom, there will be a 'lock' that stops your crib's drop rail. Delta Cribs have a plastic tab you pop out with a screwdriver, Childcraft has a screw-in bumper stop that just screws out.
Remove the lock, let the crib's drop side come all the way down, and then it will easily remove from the crib. For 85% of the cribs out there this is all you need to do. They will have a piece of board or something bracing the frame.
If, however, you have a side rail, you will need to attach it to the 3-sided crib, and once the drop side is off, the method becomes self evident (usually the drop side is hiding bolt/screw holes)

I am in the same boat. I went back for the extra parts from the furniture store (Fish Furniture) where we bought the crib. I asked them for instructions and was told they did not have any, but they were on the Pali web site. The web site does have the crib instructions, but no conversion instructions.

Where are the instructions to covert these beds? It should be on the navigation bar of the Pali web site.

Pathetic!

Pali Mia crib

I just bought this crib on Craig's list and the ad said it converts to both a day bed and toddler bed, however I didn't have any instructions so found the Pali website and requested an instruction manual for this bed - and they indicated it converts only to a toddler bed, but you have to have purchased the conversion kit, which is also avaiable on their website.
So I would recommend going to the pali website and requesting the manual ! Hope that helps.

How to convert crib to bed

I have the opposite problem - I can put it together as a toddler bed. The trick with that is that you put one of the long screws through both the hole at the SHORT end of the toddler bed side AND the metal flange from the springs into that end of the crib. The other long screw goes through the raised end of the toddler side into the end of the crib - where the child's head would be.

Is there supposed to be a plastic piece at the top of both ends of the crib on the side that does NOT go up and down? I can't seem to figure out how to put the crib side on.
