Inserting And Removing Diskettes - Epson Equity 386/25 User Manual

For a 5 ¼-inch diskette, it is best to write on a label before
you attach it to the diskette. If you need to write on a label
that is already on a 5 ¼-inch diskette, use only a soft-tip
pen-not a ballpoint pen or a pencil.
Store diskettes in their protective envelopes and in a proper
location, such as a diskette container. Do not store diskettes
flat or stack them on top of each other.

Inserting and Removing Diskettes

Hold the diskette with the label facing up and the read/write
slot leading into the drive, as shown below.
Slide the diskette into the slot until it is in all the way. Then
turn the latch down to lock it in a vertical position. This keeps
the diskette in place and enables the read/write heads in the
diskette drive to access the diskette.
