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 (1). A plastic brace that holds the cartridge door open.

v Cartridge manual rewind tool (2). A device that fits into the cartridge's hub

and lets you wind the tape into and out of the cartridge.

v Pin supplies (3). Leader pins and C-clips.
