Murphy bed won't open

I wanted to close my Murphy bed to vacuum under it and now it wont open and im running out of ideas. The wood piece at the bottom seems to be the reason, since the bed will open up to a 20° angle. I tried putting some lotion on it to release some friction but it didnt work. Also tried sanding it down but that didnt work either. If i try to force it it seems like the whole frame might fall on me. Does anyone have any ideas? Kinda desperate submitted by /u/Lanky_Dragonfly_4746 [link] [comments]
