Setting Up the Tabletop Model
Library tabletop models require no mechanical assembly for mounting (see
Figure 10). Place the library on a desk, table, or other stable, horizontal surface.
Make sure the cooling grills at the front and the fans at the rear of the library are
not obstructed. Allow 18 inches (50 cm) of clearance at the front and rear for
magazine and hot-plug tape drive access without the need to reposition the library.
Note: To reduce tabletop clearance requirements, temporarily move the library
forward or rearward to access the hot-plug drive shoes and magazines, respectively.
