Mounting the LS-10 Chapter 4
holding the scanner and guide rails in front of the drive bay. Choose the holes and posi­
tion of the guide rails (relative to the scanner) that look best. Then, place the scanner
on one side and position the guide rails so that their vertically-elongated holes align with
the set of holes on the scanner which you have chosen. Using the provided screws,
attach one guide rail to each side of the scanner, but do not tighten them all the way.
Use the corresponding mounting holes on both sides of the scanner. Again, make sure
that the beveled edge of the guide rails faces the rear of the scanner. The heads of the
screws should be recessed into the guide rails when tightened. These should not pro­
trude above the surface of the guide rails.
Step 10. Insert the scanner into the selected drive bay.
Slide the scanner into the drive bay. Check to see that its front panel is flush with
the faces of adjacent devices in the drive bays, and that it does not touch the other
devices. If these criteria are met, remove the scanner and tighten down the guide rail
screws.
Never force the scanner into the drive bay. Be careful of sharp sheet metal in the
drive bay while inserting and removing Coolscan.
If the scanner does not fit properly, go to Step 11.
Step 11. Reposition the guide rails as required.
As noted earlier, there are a myriad of PCs and PC configurations. The process of
properly aligning the scanner with the computer drive bay may require several attempts
and some patience. Adjust the position of the guide rails with respect to the scanner and
try inserting it again. Continue fine-tuning the placement of the guide rails until the
scanner fits properly into the drive bay. Make sure to tighten down the guide rail screws
when you have accomplished this task.
