Reattaching a Leader Pin
The first meter of tape in a cartridge is leader tape. Once the leader tape has been
removed there is a possibility of tape breakage. After reattaching the leader pin,
transfer data from the defective tape cartridge. Do not reuse the defective tape
cartridge .
The Leader Pin Reattachment Kit contains three parts:
v Leader pin attach tool (see
1
in Figure 21). A plastic brace that holds the
cartridge door open.
v
Cartridge manual rewind tool (see
2
in Figure 21). A device that fits into the
cartridge’s hub and lets you wind the tape into and out of the cartridge.
v
Pin supplies (see
3
in Figure 21). Leader pins and C-clips.
Attention:
v Use only the IBM Leader Pin Reattachment Kit to reattach the leader pin to the
tape. Other methods of reattaching the pin will damage the tape, the drive, or
both.
v Use this procedure on your tape cartridge only when the leader pin detaches
from the magnetic tape and you must copy the cartridge’s data onto another
cartridge. Destroy the damaged cartridge after you copy the data. This
procedure may affect the performance of the leader pin during threading and
unloading operations.
v Touch only the end of the tape. Touching the tape in an area other than the end
can damage the tape’s surface or edges, which may interfere with read or write
reliability.
