I realize there are many drawer removal threads,but i need specific instructions for drawer removal on a Snap On KR655 bottom roll around box. The slides are ball bearing and have no apparent levers or clips to push. There are TINY plastic tabs that are t shaped on the slot at the front of the slide but do not move up or down. I cannot take pics of the slides. Any illustrations or videos would be great ! Is there such a thing as a user manual for this box ?

for all the drawers except the bottom one:
pull open the drawer directly under the one you want to remove all the way.
pull the drawer open that you want to remove. there is a screw on the outside at the front of the inside part of the slide. unscrew it, and keep track of it. once you have done this to both sides, life up the front of the drawer about an inch, and then pull it away from the box. the drawer will drop down onto the drawer you opened below it.
when you get to the bottom drawer, put something (a box or step stool) under the drawer after you open it. it is held in by 4 screws on each side. undo the first three, starting from the front of the drawer. this will cause the drawer to sag onto whatever you put below it. carefully remove the remaining screw on each side. keep track of the screws.
did i mention keeping track of the screws? they are pesky little buggers, and seem to get lost easily. the drawers are tapped for them, and they seem to be made of unobtanium, since i have never found a replacement of the correct size and length.

Interesting...I didn't know the screws were that scarce. When I replaced the slides on my KR 655 I kept the old screws.
Of course I don't remember where I put them!

do you know what the part numbers for the slides are?
