Figure 69 shows a typical 10U cartridge elevator assembly. The motor drive section

always goes on top, and the base section with the idler pulley always goes on the

bottom. Extension sections are mounted between the motor drive section and the

base section. All extensions are joined together with tie bars. The cartridge elevator

moves tape cartridges vertically between the modules.

Assembly

You will need a clean, flat work area such as a table or work bench. The surface

should be long enough to support the full height of the cartridge elevator. The

height is equal to the height of the stack of modules in your system. Use the

following procedure to assemble your cartridge elevator.

If you received a pre-assembled 10U cartridge elevator and the length is correct for

your system, see “Installing the cartridge elevator” on page 72. If you need to add

a cartridge elevator extension section, complete the following procedure:

1. Remove the retaining screws from the bottom plate of the cartridge elevator.
