Tape Broken in Mid-tape
1. With the front of the drive facing you, pull an arm’s length of tape out of the
takeup reel. From the takeup reel, thread tape around the rear of the tape path
and over the head rollers on the left side of the drive.
Note: If there is less than approximately 5 cm (2 in.) of tape on the takeup reel,
go to “Tape Pulled from or Broken near Leader Pin” on page A-15.
2. From the supply reel inside the cartridge, pull approximately 0.3 m (1 ft.) of tape.
3. Make sure the tape is not twisted. Untwist tape if required.
4. Moisten a cotton swab with water, and wet approximately 13 mm (0.5 in.) of the
tape end. Overlap the tape ends, loosely mending them together.
5. Set the drive on its left side with the head and tape path facing up.
6. Turn the supply reel ( in Figure A-19) clockwise, carefully guiding the mended
portion of the tape to wind around the hub of the supply reel located inside the
cartridge. Continue spooling into the cartridge until the tape is taut. The tape
must remain within the flanges of the tape guiding rollers. Turn the supply reel
( in Figure A-19) 10 additional turns. Ensure that you do not stretch the tape.
