DISASSEMBLING THE CARRIER:
Release the Assembly Buckles
by pushing the yellow buttons to
allow Buckles to disengage. As you
lift up on the Carrier Top, remove the
Door and completely remove the
Carrier Top. The Door and Carrier
Top can be nested inside the Carrier
Bottom for storage.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Attach the Storage Compartment Lid on
the 27” carrier. (These are pre-attached on
the 32” and 36” carriers.)
Set the Carrier Bottom on a flat surface
and attach the Assembly Buckles. The
Yellow Hinges will snap into place on the
spaces provided on the Carrier Bottom;
keep the Assembly Buckle and Yellow
Hinge in a “V” formation while attaching
for easiest application.
Place the Carrier Top on the Carrier
Bottom. Before locking the Buckles,
attach the Door by placing the bottom
door prong into the hole on the left side
of the Carrier Bottom. Lift up on the
Carrier Top to insert the top door prong
into the Carrier Top. Lower the Carrier Top
so it rests on the Carrier Bottom, then
secure them together by locking
the Assembly Buckles.

CARRIER OPTIONS:
Many airlines require travel carriers to be
secured with metal screws or bolts for checked pet
carriers. To secure your Skudo for airline travel, use the
Barrel Nuts and Screws provided. There are two holes in
the back of the Skudo and two in the front on either side
of the door. Please note that the holes on the sides of the
carrier are not to be used the with metal hardware; these
are for use with optional plastic zip ties (sold separately).
To install the metal hardware, place a washer over the
screw and push it up through the hole in the bottom half
of the Skudo. When the screw is exposed on the top half,
place a second washer over the screw and secure it with
the Barrel Nut. Always check with your air carrier prior to
booking to ensure you are following your airline’s
specific travel requirements.

push the tabs on the carrier feet.
