How to attach the leather handle?

To begin with, make sure you have a screwdriver at hand and take a moment to read the instructions below before proceeding.

  1. Open your suitcase and lay it flat.

  2. Unzip the lining to expose the handle.

  3. Locate the screws securing the handle.

  4. Unscrew the four screws that attach the top handle. Whilst unscrewing from the inside, hold the handle from the outside to support the screw.

    Please do not discard the screws as they will be needed when inserting the new handle.

  5. Align all screw holes and secure the new handle in place by fastening all four screws. Ensure each screw is fully tightened.

  6. Zip the lining back up, and you're all set!
