Door Replacement - Exabyte EXB-8200 Maintenance Manual

13.3 Door Replacement

Practice assembling the door and the door retainer independently of the
EXB 8200 several times before attempting to put them on the EXB-8200. Be
sure to observe the final relationship of all of the locking tabs so that it is clear
how they should look when they are placed on the door mechanism. View A
in Figure 13-3 shows how the door, the door retainer, and the door bracket are
positioned on the EXB-8200. View B shows a side view of the door, the door
bracket, and the door retainer.
To replace the door, follow these steps:
1. If necessary, open the door mechanism on the EXB-8200 after checking
that there is no data cartridge in the EXB-8200.
2. Position the door on the arms of the door bracket so that the bottom lock-
ing tabs on the door are in the notches on the bottom of the door bracket.
3. Hold the door in position on the door bracket with the thumb and first fin-
ger of one hand and position the door retainer so that the locking tab
notches on the bottom of the door retainer are by the locking tabs on the
door.
4. Squeeze the door and door retainer together using the thumb and first fin-
ger of each hand so that the bottom notches snap together with the lock-
ing tabs. Apply the pressure so that the door retainer moves in and up
under the locking tabs.
5. Squeeze the door and door retainer together at the top edge to engage the
top locking tabs.
6. Inspect the door to make sure all tabs are in the correct position. If one
of the bottom tabs is not in its correct position, separate the door and the
door retainer and restart the replacement procedure.
