I want to remove my battery trays to clean and re-paint. Does anybody know the "trick". I can't find a slide release. (2002 Monoco Windsor PST)
Thanks

Give Monaco a call they should be able to help you. You might want to paint it with this after you clean it.

I second the POR 15 Treatment. I use a couple quarts a year on various pieces of equipment. It s pricey but well worth it.

The way I got my trays out was to remove the batteries then with the slide in the out position I unbolted it. I could find no slide release.

Thanks for the comments. I have some POR-15 paint & supplies on order. After removing the batteries, I'm going to clean and paint the best I can without removing the trays. I'm sure I will enjoy my time...
Thanks!
