NOTE:
The robotic assembly will offer resistance. Lift the robotic assembly no faster than 12 mm (0.5 inch)
per second.
4. Lift the robotic assembly gently from the module and place it on top of the module on the right side
(opposite the spooling mechanism) and slightly to the front. Take care not to damage the spooling
cable.
5. On the top of the robotic assembly where the spooling cable is attached, use a small flat head or Torx
screwdriver driver to press and push the small latch that unlocks the spooling cable.
NOTE:
Note where the end of the spooling cable pivots in the robotic assembly. This is important to know
when you attach the new spooling cable to the robotic assembly.
6. Lift the spooling cable from the robotic assembly and place it in its cradle at the top of the spooling
mechanism.
7. Set the robotic assembly on a flat, anti-static work surface.
IMPORTANT:
If there is a tape cartridge still in the cartridge carrier, remove the cartridge by lifting it straight up.
You might need to move the cartridge slightly from side to side.
8. While pressing the latch near the top of the spooling mechanism, gently push the entire spooling
mechanism to the right until it clears the narrow part of the keyhole in the back left of the metal wall. It
might help to push right from the bottom with your other hand.
9. Pull the spooling mechanism toward the front of the module until it disconnects and remove it from the
module.
