2. Rotate the hand pulley (refer to Figure 3-9) until the gripper mechanism is
extended to its full position (refer to Figure 3-10).
3. Hold the hand pulley with one hand and grasp the cartridge with the other.
Pull gently on the cartridge until it is released from the gripper mechanism,
as shown in Figure 3-10.
4. 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. If it is left extended and the hand is facing the LSM door
when it is closed, the door will strike the gripper mechanism.
