Now that you have removed the library from its shipping carton,
remove the remaining packing materials from the library:
1Remove the transit screw from the top of the library and set it aside
(see figure 8).
Later in this procedure you will place the transit screw in a storage
location within the library in case it is needed for future
repackaging and shipment of the library.
Caution: The transit screw secures the library robotics. Do not
try to move the library robotics unless this screw and
the two transit screws securing the X-Y tray
(removed later during this procedure) have been
removed; moving the robotics with the transit screws
in place can cause serious damage to the library.
