2. From the back of the library, starting with the bottom pair of modules, align each module with
the module below. Repeat for each pair of modules.
CAUTION: The alignment mechanism on the lowest module must be secured in the unlocked
position. The library will not operate with the bottom mechanism in the locked position.
a. Loosen the thumbscrew on the module alignment mechanism.
b. Lower the alignment mechanism. If you encounter resistance, adjust the position of the
upper module so the pin in the alignment mechanism moves into the hole in the lower
module.
If the resistance continues, check the following:
• From the front of the rack, verify that the thumbscrews securing the modules to the
rack have been loosened.
• Verify that the rack is level side-to-side and front-to-back.
• Check the rack for any obstructions or damage that could prevent the modules from
aligning.
When the alignment mechanism is in the locked position, tighten the thumbscrew.
