Tandberg Data recommends that two
people unpack the autoloader and that
you practice good ergonomic techniques
to lessen the risk of personal injury and
damage to the unit.
Look for markings on the carton that indicate the top. If necessary, re-position the
carton so that it is upright according to
the markings.
Use a utility knife or scissors to cut the
packing tape along the length and ends
of the carton.

It takes two people to safely rackmount
your autoloader.
Warning
Before you begin, lower the rack’s leveler
feet and extend the rack’s anti-tip device.
Failure to extend the anti-tip device could
result in personal injury or damage to the
tape autoloader if the rack tips over.
Caution
Do not remove the top cover of the
autoloader during the installation process.
Removing the top cover could result in
damage to the autoloader.
Caution
Ensure that the rack and all equipment
mounted in the rack have a reliable
ground connection. Verify that the total
current of the rack components does not
exceed the current rating of the power
distribution unit or outlet receptacles.

Caution
Position the autoloader so that no cooling
vents or exhaust from other devices are
located directly in front of the unit; this
helps minimize the amount of foreign
debris entering the tape path. Excessive
dust and debris can damage tapes and
tape drives.
