How do you remove a drawer from a tool chest?

[nel621]

I got a good deal on a Craftsman tool chest.There are a bunch of sockets on the bottom of the cabinet under the drawer.I tried to release the sides without any luck,I also didn't want to damage the thing.Is there a trick to this?It seeems simple enough but I can't pry the sides loose.Thanks.

If its on accuglide rails (the drawer) There are some tabs to release it, Mine had a tab on either side you could access though a hole in the rail. You use a screwdriver or whatever to push the tab and it will let you slide the drawer out of the rails. A little tricky to do one side at a time. Just make sure once you get the first side out a little you don't push it back into place while pulling the other side out.

If that doesn't work pull the drawers out, roll the chest on its side and then top. Shut the drawersroll it over on it's front (drawers facing down) and then keep going so its rightside up. Anything that was in the bottom is now in the top drawer.
Had to do that with a parts bin once.
