How to attach the trolley system?

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

  1. Open your suitcase and lay it flat.

  2. Unzip the lining to expose the inner trolley system. If there is protective foam inside, gently remove it.

  3. Locate the screws securing the trolley:

    Four screws near the top, underneath the handle.

    Two screws at the base of the poles (you may need to remove a thin layer of foam to access these).

  4. Unscrew all six screws, keeping track of which ones go where, as different screws may be used in different areas.

  5. Once the screws are removed, pull the metal trolley poles out of the plastic brace at the bottom and slide the trolley out by the exterior handle.

  6. Insert the new trolley system, ensuring the metal poles pass through the inner reinforcement.

  7. Fit the base of the poles into the plastic brace at the bottom of the suitcase.

  8. Align all screw holes and secure the trolley in place by fastening all six screws. Ensure each screw is fully tightened.:

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

Test the trolley system by extending and retracting the handle, ensuring smooth movement.
