Removing a floppy disk
1.
Before attempting to remove a disk, ensure that the drive is not
currently in use (the drive’s LED must be unlit).
2.
Turn the locking lever one-quarter turn counter-clockwise to
disengage the drive mechanism. The diskette is ejected halfway
out of the drive.
3.
Pull the disk completely out of the drive.
Write-protecting a floppy disk
A floppy disk can be write-protected by covering the small notch in
the edge of the disk envelope (A) with a self-adhesive tab (B); such
tabs are typically supplied with new floppy disks. With the tab in
this position, you can read or print files from the disk, but you
cannot create, rename or delete any files.
