To prevent the latch assembly from coming loose, apply pressure to the latch and spring while
removing the latch button. If the latch assembly does come loose from the case:
a. Slide the spring onto the slider on the latch, and reinstall the latch into the holding
features on the inside of the bottom case.
b. Ensure that the slider is inserted into the hole, that the side of the latch with the two
bumps is facing the back of the case, and that the side with the wear rib is facing the
front of the case.
HINT: The latch will not function properly if the slider is oriented
incorrectly.
1 bumps (2 per latch) 5 latch buttons (2)
2 slider 6 snap tabs (2 per latch button)
