Operator Guide
• Every time you pick up a cartridge, ensure that the leader
block is latched.
• Never carry two or more cartridges loose in a container.
Leader blocks can snag on other cartridges and unlatch.
• Keep cartridges clean and dry.
• Never release a leader block and pull tape from a cartridge.
• Never open a cartridge.
• Never expose tape or a cartridge to direct sunlight.
• Never smoke near the tape drive or cartridge storage areas.
Tobacco smoke and ash are damaging to tapes.
• Never place cartridges near electric motors or any other
magnetic sources that may erase data.
• To clean a cartridge, wipe off dust, dirt, and moisture with a
lint-free cloth.
If you must use a cleaning solution, make sure it is formulated
for tape cartridges. Never allow the solution to touch the tape.
• If a leader block comes off and there is no other damage, you
can use a leader block repair kit to reattach the block. You
can then use the cartridge one more time to copy the data
onto a new cartridge.
• If a label starts to peel, replace it immediately.
• Do not write on a label that is on a cartridge. Write a new
label, remove the old one, and replace it with the new one.
