Expansion Door Procedure
To remove a cartridge from the hand when your LSM has an expansion door:
1. Rotate the Z column until the hand is facing the expansion door location.
2. Rotate the reach mechanism belt drive until the gripper is extended to its full
position, as shown in Figure 3-15 on page 3-28 .
3. Hold the reach mechanism belt drive with one hand and grasp the cartridge with the
other. Pull gently on the cartridge until it is released from the gripper, as shown in
Figure 3-16 on page 3-29 .
CAUTION:
Potential equipment damage: Make sure that the gripper is fully
retracted. If it is left extended and you turn the robot, the gripper will
strike a storage cell. If it is left extended and the hand is facing the LSM
door when it is closed, the door will strike the gripper.
4. Turn the reach mechanism belt drive until the gripper is fully retracted.
