Hi Dadenn

I assumed that you are trying to remove the tape cartridge from the magazine?

For normal moving of cartridges, please refer to Page 109 on this manual:-
ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powervault/powervault-tl2000_User%27s%20Guide_en-us.pdf

For manually removing the cartridges from the magazine, please refer to Page 199 on this manual:-
ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_ser_stor_net/esuprt_powervault/powervault-tl2000_User%27s%20Guide_en-us.pdf

Hope this helps.
