Operating in Manual Mode
Opening the LSM Front Door
You must open the front door to perform manual operations. Refer to 
1. Make sure that all jobs have ended and place the LSM offline. If the LSM 
operator panel does not say OFFLINE, refer to your software publication and 
enter the command at the customer server console to place the LSM offline.
CAUTION:
Potential static electricity damage to electrical components.
 Take 
precautions against electrostatic discharge by touching unpainted metal 
(gray or gold) before reaching into the library. Avoid touching any 
electrical components.
2. Open the front door by using a latch key to unlock the top and bottom latches. 
Turn the key counterclockwise. 
Moving the Robot
After you open 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 you attempt to move any portion of 
the robot. 
CAUTION:
Possible equipment damage:
To prevent damaging 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 hand pulley (refer to 
) to retract the reach mechanism. If the LSM goes offline 
due to a power failure, the reach mechanism might be extended into 
a storage cell or drive. If the robot is rotated when this condition 
exists, the hand will be damaged. 
Move the Z column and Z carriage only as shown in 
Do not touch exposed electrical parts when moving any part of the 
robot.
