Linear Actuator

[Hartley]

Here's an idea for safety...

Make the end of the actuator sit in a round tube sleeve on the end that extends. Then if you need to get it open and have
no power you can lift the bed up and the actuator tube will fall out of the sleeve. (no bolt or pin).

Had to make something like that for a guys 10 foot satellite dish jack so in a really high wind the dish would flip over against a stop bar at the other end of rotation. ( it was 27 feet up in the air too! ) That was a wierd project but the idea worked.
