steveandlisa Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Hi folks, The hot/cold mixer tap over the sink has worked loose on my Bailey 740se 2012 and needs tightening. Problem is to gain access I need to remove the drawer below the sink, its on runners and I cant see how to release them? Any help appreciated thanks.

colin Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Not sure what runners your van has, but our Globe car has similar to that halfway down this page labelled 'metal glides with levers'. https://www.wikihow.com/Remove-Drawers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyishuk Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 A photo of the drawer pulled open showing the runners might help. There are a number of ways the runners can hold the drawers Ours just a simple " pull it out. Then lift the front to remove from the runners "" Others have little catches that stop the movement of the drawer as it is pulled out.

Solwaybuggier Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 We used to have a similar Bailey - I think the drawer came out by lifting when it was pulled out, but tbh I could be getting mixed up with another van! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Uzzell Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I notice that Steve has asked the same question before: https://forums.outandaboutlive.co.uk/forums/Motorhomes/Motorhome-Matters/Cutlery-draw-removal/49807/ I’m startled that (12 months on) it has still not been possible to establish how to remove the under-sink drawer. Surely someone - the Bailey factory, a Bailey dealership or Bailey owners on the Facebook group - must know how to do this? The following 2016 discussion relates to removing drawers in Bailey Caravan https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/club-together/discussions/information-technical-tips-advice/caravans/help-required-to-remove-a-drawer-in-a-bailey-cadiz/ I don’t know if the advice will be relevant to Steve’s 2012 motorhome but, as the caravan owner was initially unable to remove the drawers until told how, the removal method may well not be obvious. (It perhaps needs saying that it’s quite normal for drawer-removal to require the drawer to be detached from its runners, rather than detaching the complete drawer + runners assembly from the furniture carcass.)

Steve OK, still unable to fathom it out so I removed the front drawer panel, that was a bit of a crypton factor moment too!!! Doing so gave me just enough free arm movement to tighten up the tap back-nut, job done ;-) Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
