Operating Instructions

Maneuvering with MagnaTrac Spinner Wheels

The eight MagnaTrac self-aligning spinner wheels are designed for smooth, 360-degree rotation and effortless rolling. They automatically align to track straight, reducing effort.

Utilizing the Tapered Expansion

For additional packing space, the suitcase features a tapered 2-inch expansion. This design helps maintain the bag's center of gravity, reducing the likelihood of tipping.

1. Locate the expansion zipper around the perimeter of the suitcase.
2. Unzip the expansion zipper to extend the suitcase's depth by 2 inches.
3. To return to the original size, compress the sides of the suitcase and re-zip the expansion zipper.

Packing System

The interior of the suitcase is equipped with a deluxe tie-down system, built-in accessory pockets, and a removable quart-size wet pocket to keep your belongings organized and secure.

TSA-Compliant Lock

The integrated TSA-compliant lock allows security authorities to inspect your luggage without damaging the lock. To set or reset the combination, refer to the small instruction card usually found with the lock or inside the suitcase.

Maintenance

Fabric Care (DuraGuard Coating)

The DuraGuard coating provides resistance to stains and water. For general cleaning:

• Wipe the exterior fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the coating.
• Allow the suitcase to air dry completely before storing.

Zipper Maintenance

To ensure smooth operation of the chrome zippers:

• Periodically clean zippers with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris.
• Lubricate zippers with a silicone-based spray or zipper wax if they become stiff.
• Avoid overstuffing the suitcase, which can put excessive strain on zippers.

Wheel and Handle Care

• Inspect wheels regularly for debris and remove any obstructions.
• Wipe the PowerScope handle clean with a damp cloth.
• Ensure the handle extends and retracts smoothly. Do not force it if it jams.

Troubleshooting

Suitcase Tipping Forward

If the suitcase tends to tip forward, especially when expanded or with items in the front pockets:

• Distribute weight evenly throughout the main compartment.
• Place heavier items towards the back and bottom of the suitcase.
• Avoid overfilling external front pockets with heavy items.

Stiff or Jammed Zippers

If zippers are difficult to operate:

• Check for any fabric or debris caught in the zipper teeth. Carefully remove it.
• Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone spray, wax) to the teeth.
• If a zipper is broken, refer to the warranty information for repair options.

Handle Not Extending/Retracting Smoothly

If the PowerScope handle is difficult to adjust:

• Ensure the release button is fully depressed when adjusting.
• Check for any obstructions in the handle mechanism.
• Avoid applying excessive force. If the issue persists, contact Travelpro customer support.
