Moving the Robot

After opening the LSM doors, you might need to move the robot to make it
easier to access the stored cartridges or the drives.

Read and observe the following caution before attempting to move any portion
of the robot.

CAUTION:
Potential equipment damage
: Do not touch exposed electrical parts
when moving any part of the robot.

To prevent damage to the hand or Z carriage, make sure that the reach
mechanism on the hand is fully retracted before moving any part of the
robot. Turn the belt drive to retract the reach mechanism.

If the LSM goes offline because of a power failure, the reach mechanism
might extend into a storage cell or drive. If the robot is rotated in this
condition, the hand will be damaged.

Move the Z column and Z carriage only, as shown in

Figure 3-4
