Maintenance and Cleaning
- Tray Cleaning: The pull-out tray can be easily removed for cleaning. Wash with mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly and dry before reinserting.
- Kennel Frame Cleaning: Wipe down the metal frame with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish. Dry completely to prevent rust.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all connections, latches, and wheels to ensure they are functioning correctly and are free from damage. Tighten any loose screws as needed.
Troubleshooting
- Kennel is unstable: Ensure all side panels are fully extended and locked into place. Check that the caster wheels are securely installed and locked when the kennel is stationary.
- Door not latching properly: Verify that the door is aligned correctly with the frame. Ensure the lever latches slide smoothly and fully engage the locking points. Inspect for any bent wires that might obstruct the latch.
- Tray is difficult to remove/insert: Check for any debris or obstructions in the tray's runners. Ensure the kennel frame is not warped or bent, which could impede tray movement.
- Caster wheels not rolling smoothly: Clean any hair or debris from around the wheel axles. Ensure the wheels are properly seated in their sockets.
