Hardware Operator's Guide Removing a Cartridge from the Hand If the LSM experiences a power failure, a cartridge might be left in the hand. To complete a job request, you can remove it from the hand and manually mount it into a drive for a read/write operation. CAUTION: Follow the procedures described in "Moving the Robot." Failing to do so could damage the hand. Make sure that you do not touch the TWH card on the hand assembly. The card contains ESD-sensitive components and could be damaged. 1. Rotate the Z column until the hand is on the left, top side of the LSM (Panel 0 Column 0). 2. Turn the hand pulley until the gripper mechanism is fully extended and remove the cartridge. 3. Turn the hand pulley until the gripper mechanism is fully retracted. CAUTION: Make sure that the gripper mechanism is fully retracted. If it is left extended and you turn the robot, the gripper mechanism will strike a storage cell. Figure 3-8. Extending the Gripper Mechanism 3-12
