5.9.1 Inserting a Cartridge into the Front of the Magazine
To simplify cartridge insertion: place the magazine on a flat surface with the slots
facing you (Figure 5-4). Each slot is numbered to ensure you are inserting the cartridge
correctly in the front of the magazine. Usually, cartridges are inserted into consecutive
slots.
To insert a cartridge into the magazine:
1. Grasp the cartridge with the write-protect switch on the right side facing you
(Figure 5-3).
2. Set the cartridge's write-protect switch to the desired position.
