Drawer removal from tool chest

[Rod N]

I'm moving and would like to pull the drawers out of my tool chest so there is less chance of a catastrophe.
Can someone please tell me how to do this? Or can it even be done?

looks like these tabs need to be pushed up or down, depending on which side you're working on

Can it be that easy? lol

I have the identical drawer slides on my toolchest. The one shown in the picture needs to be pushed upwards and the one on the opposite side will need to be pushed downward. Keep each tab pressed as you pull the drawer out.

There's no trick to reinserting the drawers, just make sure the part attached to the drawers slips into the bearing track on the part still attached to the case.

Yes

Most tool chests mirror the drawer slides from left to right, so you'll be pushing up on one side and down on the other. Just a note so you're not confused why neither both up or both down seems to be working.

Yes it’s that easy.

Shoulda' bought an old Snap-on. They're way more challenging!

I bought one for my son and was very finicky so I was expecting the worse with this one.
