How to install SKB Mil Standard Injection Molded Case Iseries 1813 7 Waterproof Utility

• Inspect the case and contents for any shipping damage. Confirm the interior layout matches your gear configuration and note any padding, dividers, or foam inserts that may be included or removed.
• Prepare your equipment by organizing components to be placed inside. Use protective padding or foam to cushion edges and corners, particularly for delicate panels, knobs, and connectors.
• Open the case and position the heaviest items toward the center to maintain balance during transport. Arrange cables and small parts in a way that minimizes shifting while closed.
• Place gear snugly into the interior so there is minimal movement. If dividers are available, adjust them to create compartments that securely cradle each item and prevent contact with other components.
• Close the lid and engage the latching closure fully. Check that the latch is secured and the lid remains sealed even when the case is tilted or jostled. Carry the case using the integrated handles or protective latches as needed.
• Store or transport in a dry, stable environment. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or direct exposure to moisture beyond what the case is designed to resist, ensuring long-term protection for your gear.
