Jammed Cartridge
5-30 Sixth Edition 95741
■Jammed Cartridge
A jammed cartridge in a CSL is not a common malfunction. A jammed cartridge
unloads from the drive and remains on the feed roller (Figure 5-21). It does not
eject fully into the feed channel.
You must know how to remove jammed cartridges when the malfunction
occurs. Follow the procedures in this section to remove a jammed cartridge.
See Figure 5-21 for the CSL manual unload device (MUD) screw location. The
MUD screw is located to the right of the feed channel.
Notes:
•Only use the MUD mechanism to remove jammed cartridges
(cartridges still in the 9840 Tape Drive) or to reset the drive for
shipping (cartridges not on the feed roller).
•The MUD screw must be turned clockwise (CW) to remove jammed
cartridges.
•The MUD screw must be turned counterclockwise (CCW) to reset
the drive to its shipping position and to install and lock the shipping
insert into the drive.
