TILT RANGE

The LF 8600 is not designed for use when tilted from the vertical position.

HEAT DISSIPATION

The drive will typically present a heat load of 95 kg-calories/hr (376 BTU/hr) during a read/write operation. When media cartridges are inserted, loaded, spun up, spun down, unloaded and removed at the drive's maximum rate, the LF 8600 will typically present a heat load of 138 kg-calories/hr (546 BTU/hr).

PARTICULATE LIMITS

The LF 8600 is designed for use in an office or computer room. The environment must have a low dust level. The LF 8600 filters incoming air for cooling to reduce the quantity of particles entering the drive; however, the filter is not effective against small particles (including tobacco smoke) which will become deposited on optical components and media, causing degradation in drive performance. Refer to the Operator Maintenance section for media cleaning and air filter cleaning instructions.

WARNING LABELS

The LF 8600 is classified as a laser product and meets all United States federal requirements. The warning labels shown in the figure below have been applied to the Drive to ensure compliance with federal regulations and must not be removed from the LF 8600.
