Move the robot

■

Locate a cartridge in the storage cells

■

Remove a cartridge from the hand

■

Mount a cartridge in a drive

■

Dismount a cartridge from a drive

Before starting any of these tasks, you must take precautions against 

electrostatic discharge (ESD).

Caution

Potential static electricity damage to electrical components: Take 

precaution against potential ESD damage by touching 

unpainted metal on the library frame before reaching into the 

library or touching any drives. Avoid touching any electrical 

components. 

After you have opened a library door:
1.  With your finger, touch a gray, unpainted metal surface, such as the 

library frame just inside the front door. 

2.  Keep your body movement to a minimum as you touch the drives or 

library components.
