18 Verify robot motion: Push or pull on the robot handle to move the robot toward the center of the library
just far enough so that it passes over the first junction in the gear racks.
Training Note: This step is more important than it might seem. If the robot is binding as you
slide it, it's possible the collectors are crossed on the power rails. This could damage the robot
when power is applied.
If the robot slides smoothly without resistance, noise, or jerkiness, everything is properly installed.
Proceed to next step.
If the robot does NOT slide smoothly, check the connection between the collectors and the power
rails — this is the most common point of trouble. If you cannot determine the problem, remove the robot
from the library and start over at
directly underneath the loader bracket. Open the collector door, unlatch the yellow plastic locking lever,
lift the robot up so that its rollers clear the racks, and pull it out of the library, top end first.)
19 Disengage the robot kickstand by lifting up on the yellow lever to release the locking tab. Using the
handle, raise the picker up a couple of inches so that the locking tab won't re-engage, then let go of the
handle. (See Figure 22
20 Move the robot's yellow plastic locking lever into the "lock" position. Pull down on the knob to move the
lever. Move the handle to the right to lock it snaps into place. (When locked, the lever is under the middle
rack support, which prevents you from lifting the robot out.) See
