Remove drawers Kennedy tool chest

I have a 20 year old kennedy tool chest model 3407. It has accuride slides in it. I cannot seem to figure out how to remove the drawers! Looked online, called Kennedy.. Notting! Anyone?

Pry up the small tab (shown in the center of photo #3) while pulling on the drawer.

Tried it. That doesn't release the slide.

Tried it. That doesn't release the slide.

Then you're prying the wrong tab.

This one?

 

[ez-duzit]

That should do it.

 

[Bockscar]

That should do it.

Both sides I think

This one?

Pry the tap and let the drawer move just a bit should release the drawer from the slides.

Yes, BOTH sides at one time....
You might want to use a small screwdriver ( nail, other small flatish thingie) to stick in each side to keep the tab in the right place, then pull out the drawer...
It is a pain.... but it works....

The inside tab is the locking mechanism.... to lift it out, pull out the larger tab in front of the area in pic "from this one?" then pull out on the smaller locking tab.... takes at least 14 hands to do....
It should flex pretty easily.... over flex it and you will kink the metal and then you get to learn how to replace it....
