Removing a Stuck DLT Tape
Use the following procedure and
to remove a tape stuck in a DLT
drive module:

2. Locate the spring-loaded latch near the opening on the drive module, and
push it outward (item 1 in

the latch.

encounter high resistance in turning the thumb-wheel, check to
ensure that the spring-loaded latch has been rotated outward.
