casio cash register - drawer stuck?

our casio 140Cr drawer keeps sticking. The release button undoes the problem although the drawer will not open when the button is pressed on the till. You can also wiggle the drawer and it will open. Any ideas?

This is usually caused by the latch mechanism in the drawer. It will probably either be very worn, or screws etc coming loose. Try taking the drawer apart and tighten/ lube the latch that holds the back of the drawer tray.
