Completing The Safety Inspection Procedure; Tape Drive Ac Grounding Inspection - IBM TS2280 Setup, Operator, And Service Manual

Caution
The battery is a lithium ion battery. To avoid possible explosion, do not burn. Exchange only with
the IBM-approved part. Recycle or discard the battery as instructed by local regulations. In the
United States, IBM has a process for the collection of this battery. For information, call
1-800-426-4333. Have the IBM part number for the battery unit available when you call. (C007)
Caution
The system contains circuit cards, assemblies, or both that contain lead solder. To avoid the
release of lead (Pb) into the environment, do not burn. Discard the circuit card as instructed by
local regulations. (C014)
Caution
When removing the Modular Refrigeration Unit (MRU), immediately remove any oil residue
from the MRU support shelf, floor, and any other area to prevent injuries because of slips or falls.
Do not use refrigerant lines or connectors to lift, move, or remove the MRU. Use handholds as
instructed by service procedures. (C016)
Caution
Do not connect an IBM control unit directly to a public optical network. The customer must use
an additional connectivity device between an IBM control unit optical adapter (that is, fibre,
ESCON, FICON
or a switch. You do not need an additional connectivity device for optical fibre connectivity that
does not pass through a public network.

Completing the safety inspection procedure

Before you service the unit, complete the safety inspection procedure:
1. Stop all activity on the host bus.
2. Turn off the power to the tape drive.
3. Disconnect the host interface cable.
4. Unplug the tape drive's power cord from the electrical outlet.
5. Check the tape drive's power cord for damage, such as a pinched, cut, or frayed cord.
6. Check the tape drive's host interface cable for damage.
7. Check the cover of the tape drive for sharp edges, damage, or alterations that expose its internal
parts.
8. Check the cover of the tape drive for proper fit. It should be in place and secure.
9. Check the product label on the tape drive to make sure that it matches the voltage at your outlet.
