Opening the Housing

Lid Snaps have a Lock. To open,
push Lid Snap Lock forward and lift as
shown. Keep pressure on the Lid
Snap so it does not fly open quickly.

Lid Snaps have a lot of spring tension
once they go over center, so have a
firm grip on the Lid Snap. Lid Snaps
may be opened one at a time.
