Manually Removing a Cartridge
51 SDLT Tape Drives Reference Guide
Rewinding the Tape into the Cartridge
The magnetic recording tape must be fully rewound into the cartridge before
removing the cartridge from the drive.
Figure 9: Rewinding the tape into the cartridge
The tape is rewound by accessing the motor spindle through the access hole
located at the bottom of the drive (see
Figure 9 ).
To rewind the tape into the cartridge:
1. Turn the drive upside down and lay flat on a hard surface.
2. Insert a T8 Torx screwdriver into the motor spindle access hole
1
.
3. Turn the screwdriver counterclockwise 2 until the cartridge leader buckle is
fully seated within the cartridge.
The linear tape speed when the tape is almost fully rewound into the cartridge
should be approximately6 inches/second. The motor spindle revolutions per
minute (RPM) are approximately 30 RPM. If most of the tape is wound on the
cartridge reel, which can be seen with the cover removed, it is possible to rewind
at a much higher tape speed, decreasing the speed near the end.
Caution: Do not place the SDLT drive upside down when the cover is removed.
