Mounting drive top- or bottom-flush against a flat surface will impede air flow and cause overheating of the capstan motor. Allow at least 10mm (.40") clearance. Recommended mounting position is either horizontal with the indicator to the left, or vertical with the indicator down. Drive must NOT be mounted with the cartridge operating upside down.
The mounting screws provided are 3mm in diameter and 10mm in length. A serrated washer is also provided. To ensure proper securing of the drive only 3mm diameter screws should be used and the thread engagement into the drive chassis must be a minimum of 5mm (.20") and a maximum of 7.5mm (.30"). Do NOT bend or twist aluminum chassis when tightening the mounting screws.
For internal tape installation, the computer power supply must be able to provide sufficient amperage for all installed equipment including the tape drive. When adding up power requirements of devices, be sure to use start-up values for motorized devices such as disk drives and the tape drive.
