Removing and Installing the Floppy Disk Drive in the BI10/FI10

Figure 1-24 Installing the Floppy Disk Drive in the FI10
Note
The disk drive can be installed in the system housing rotated by 90 . This is
necessary with a mounting position in which the network connection is at the
top. The disk drive should not be operated with the disk slot at the bottom.
In this case, after removing the disk drive, remove the angle bracket and the
tag and screw them onto the opposite points on the drive support.
Install the disk drive and ensure that the previous orientation of the floppy
disk drive is retained; that is, the disk drive cable must be fed in from below.
