Double-Oh: now I realize where you're at. You see the pack, you lift
the handle, but it doesn't come out. Well, this one's easy:
Start with the handle in the *down* position, against the pack.
You see the little semi-circular notch on the right-hand side of the
middle of the handle? Put your right thumb there. It's a little
slide mechanism, you push it to the left. Now, keeping the slide
slid to the left, you lift the handle.
It should "feel" different than before you slid the slide, and you'll
hear a ker-klunk as a lever mechanism disengages the magnetic hold-down
on the pack. Lift, and put the pack in its lid!.
Do the same to remove the lid from a pack.
Thanks, now I know how it works ;)
I've never seen a RL01 in action before. I think we had an RK05 back in
the 70's, but I wasnt allowed to operate it (senior high, they only
trust you SO far...)
