3. Operating the Case

• Securing the Lid: Once all pedals are placed and secured, close the lid of the case. Ensure the edges align properly. Engage the toggle latches by flipping them down until they click into place, securing the lid.
• Transport: Use the molded handle for carrying the case. The case also features rubber feet, allowing for stable vertical positioning when not in transit.

4. Maintenance

• Cleaning: To clean the exterior of the case, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth and drying thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Interior Care: The foam interior can be gently vacuumed to remove dust or debris. Avoid using liquids directly on the foam.
• Latch and Hinge Inspection: Periodically check the toggle latches and hinges for proper function and signs of wear. Ensure they operate smoothly and securely.

5. Troubleshooting

• Case Not Closing Properly: Ensure no pedals or cables are obstructing the closing path of the lid. Check that the aluminum edging is not bent or damaged.
• Pedals Not Securing: Verify that both the case interior and the pedals have clean, functional velcro strips. Replace worn velcro if necessary.
• Damaged Latches/Hinges: If latches or hinges become damaged, contact Stagg customer support for assistance. Do not attempt to force damaged components.
