Unpack and Acclimate the Library

Carefully unpack components and acclimate the library to the installation environment to prevent equipment damage.

1. Transport the packaged unit to the staging area. Use a pallet jack to transport the Base Module.
2. Remove plastic wrap and cut shipping straps.

   WARNING:

   An unpacked Base Module containing one tape drive and one power supply weighs approximately 21.5 kg (47 pounds).

3. Open the carton.
4. Remove the front rails from the Base Module packing material and set them aside. The rails will be used later.
5. Remove the foam pieces above the library module.
6. Remove the accessory package at the end of the module, and set it aside.
7. Remove the plastic covering the module.
8. Grasp the module by the sides, lift it out of the carton, and set it down. Do not lift the Base Module by the front control panel, the tape drive, or the tape drive filler.
9. Acclimate the module to the environment. If the module is colder than the location and sufficient humidity exists, condensation may occur.
10. Remove the pallet and any packaging materials from your work area.
