If possible, remove all magazines or tapes from the magazines in order to protect
the tape cartridges from possibly being dropped during this procedure. The cars
of RLS-44xx, 5244, 6227, 8202, 8204, 8204D, 8236, 8236C, 8236CD, 8236D,
8244, 8244D, 8404, 8404D, 8444 and 8444D storage arrays move freely and can
easily be arranged so that magazines can be removed. The RLS-4470 storage ar-
ray must be aligned with the wide end of its cams facing towards the front of the
library before the cars will move freely. This can be done by using a flat blade
screwdriver to turn the storage array motor from below. See Figure 7-14 for the
