Tilting
Avoid tilting the library as it is moved to prevent internal components
moving out of their normal positions.
PREPARATION FOR THE INSTALLATION
Review the requirements in Chapter 2 – Site Requirements, beginning on
page 18, as well as the following sections to ensure that the site where the
library will be installed meets the necessary requirements before the
Spectra Logic field engineer arrives.
Caution
If you tilt the library, Spectra Logic is not responsible for any damage caused to the
library or its components, or for any damage caused to your site.
Important
Your Spectra library will be installed for you by a certified Spectra Logic field
representative. Do not attempt to install the library yourself.
