Learn how to identify and order the correct spare parts for your Mokee WoolNest feet and beech cot, with a step-by-step guide to avoid mismatched screws and feet.
Quick answer
To order the right spare part, first identify whether you need the WoolNest Feet set (for the base of a WoolNest item) or the Beech Cot C Screw (for a beech cot assembly). Then match the part to your product using the catalog details and follow the fitting steps below.
Why the two spare parts are not interchangeable
The WoolNest Feet set and the Beech Cot C Screw serve different purposes. WoolNest Feet are four wooden feet with matching screws, designed specifically for Woolnest products. The Beech Cot C Screw is a single fastening component with a C-shaped head, intended for beech cot assemblies. Using one in place of the other can compromise stability or fit, so always confirm which part your item requires before ordering.
When to replace rather than repair
If a foot is wobbly or a screw head is stripped, replacement is usually simpler than repair. The WoolNest Feet set includes all four feet and screws, so you can refresh the entire base at once. For cot screws, replace only the damaged C screw; the standard size and thread make it a straightforward swap with common tools.
Step-by-step ordering and fitting
- Identify your item: Check whether you own a WoolNest product (needs feet) or a beech cot (needs C screws). Look for a label or manual; if unsure, measure the existing part. Mistake to avoid: ordering feet for a cot or screws for a WoolNest item—they are not interchangeable.
- Inspect the damaged part: For feet, check for cracks or wobble; for screws, look for a stripped head or bent thread. Note the quantity needed. Checkpoint: replace all four feet if more than one is damaged, as a set ensures even support.
- Order the correct part: Use the product names “WoolNest Feet” or “Beech Cot C Screw” when searching. Verify the SKU if available. Mistake to avoid: assuming a generic screw will fit—the C-shaped head is specific to beech cot assemblies.
- Prepare your tools: You will need a screwdriver that matches the screw head. Clear a flat workspace and keep small parts in a tray. Checkpoint: confirm the screwdriver fits snugly to avoid stripping the screw head during removal.
- Remove the old part: For feet, unscrew each foot; for cot screws, unscrew the damaged C screw. Keep the old parts aside for comparison. Mistake to avoid: forcing a stuck screw—apply steady pressure and check for cross-threading.
- Fit the new part: Align the new foot or screw and turn by hand first, then tighten with the screwdriver. Do not overtighten. Checkpoint: the part should sit flush; if not, remove and realign to avoid damage.
- Test stability: Gently rock the item to check for wobble. For cots, ensure all screws are secure before use. Mistake to avoid: skipping the stability check—retighten any loose parts before putting the item back into service.
