Soap dispenser drawer difficult to remove on Servis washing machine

The problem
The soap dispenser drawer would not pull out normally, and the user could not find any catches or confirm whether the top panel needed removing. They also asked about a manual for the machine.
Likely cause
The drawer was being held by a release point underneath the centre of the drawer rather than needing the washer top removed. No machine fault was described.
What fixed it
Press very hard under the centre of the dispenser drawer while pulling it out. The accepted advice also said that if no visible catch is present at the back or underneath, pull the drawer fully out and grip the sides firmly to remove it. It was also stated that Servis had no website for manual downloads.
Checks to try
  • User looked for catches on the drawer
  • Confirmed the drawer was removed by pressing hard under the centre while pulling

If there's no catch to press drown at the back or underneath the drawer then pull it fully out and then firmly pull it by gripping the sides of the drawer. Servis have no web site to download manuals from as they went bust.

Hi.

I managed to get it out, two big men pulling hard could not get it out, and i have taken a few washers apart over the years, the trick was to press very hard under the center of the drawer as you pull it out.

Thanks

John.
