HAX and VAX Lubrication Instructions

This guide provides instructions for lubricating the Horizontal Axis (HAX)

and Vertical Axis (VAX) in the Spectra T950 Library.

PREPARE FOR MAINTENANCE

This section describes the tasks required to prepare the library for

maintenance.

Gather Required Tools

You must have the following to complete this procedure:

1/8-inch Allen wrench or hex screwdriver

Large binder clip

Lint-free cleaning wipes

Isopropyl alcohol

Foam applicator

HAX grease (PN 90948180 or 90949130, green or blue in color)

VAX grease (PN 90948215 or 90949168, white in color)

Ensure ESD Protection

The repair environment for the library must be free of conditions that

could cause electrostatic discharge (ESD). To protect the library from ESD,

follow these procedures when repairing or testing the library:

Place a static protection mat on the work surface used while removing

and installing library components. Use a 1-megaohm resistor to ground

the static protection mat.

Wear a static protection wrist band or grounding foot strap whenever

you handle library components that have been removed from their

anti-static bags. Connect the wrist band to the static protection mat or

to other suitable ESD grounding.

Keep all electronic components in anti-static bags when not in use.

Discontinue Backups

Backups cannot run while you lubricate either the HAX or VAX.

1. Use your backup software to stop any backup or restore operations

running to the library.

2. Use your backup software to move any cartridges that are currently in

drives back to their storage location.

If you cannot use your backup software, then move the cartridges as

described in your library’s User Guide.

3. Pause PostScan if it is running as described in your library User Guide.

Any tapes currently being scanned are returned to their storage

locations.

Take the VAX Column Offline

1. Log into the library with superuser or administrator privileges.

2. Select Maintenance > Tools > Utilities. The Utilities screen displays.

3. Click Show Advanced. The Advanced Utilities Confirmation screen

displays.

4. Click Next. The Utilities screen refreshes to show the Advanced Utilities.

5. Scroll down and select Send Controller Command.

The screen refreshes to show the details for the Send Controller

Command utility.

Figure 2 The Send Controller Command Utilities screen.

6. From the Select a command to send drop-down list, select Prepare Robot

for Service [M].

7. From the Select a target controller drop-down list, select Motion Control.

8. Click Run Utility.

A progress screen displays. When the operation is complete, a Utility

Results screen displays. The VAX column is now parked in an

accessible position on the right-hand side of the library.

Remove the Right Side Access Window Panel

Use the following steps to remove the right side access panel from the

library.

1. Use a 1/8-inch Allen wrench or hex screwdriver to remove the screw at

the bottom of the window panel.

2. While holding the panel steady, slide it up to disengage the panel from

the hangers on each side of the chassis (three per side).

3. Lift the panel off of the hangers, out and away from the frame.

4. Set the panel aside.

Figure 3 Remove the screw at the

bottom of the window panel.

Figure 4 Slide the panel

up to disengage the hangers.

Figure 5 Lift the panel out

and away from the frame.

HAX and VAX Lubrication Instructions Lubricate the VAX Linear Rail

April 2012 HAX and VAX Lubrication Instructions—Spectra T950 Library 6

LUBRICATE THE VAX LINEAR RAIL

Use the following steps to lubricate the VAX linear rail.

1. While supporting the bottom of the transporter, lift it until it is

positioned near the middle of the VAX column.

2. Use a large binder clip to pinch the two sides of the VAX belt together,

securing the elevated transporter in place.

Note: The VAX belt is the long belt located on the left side of the VAX

column, as viewed from the front of the transporter.

Important

Do not use the front of the transporter carriage or the picker mechanism to lift the

transporter. They are not designed to support the weight of the transporter.

3. Use the supplied foam applicator to apply four thin, evenly spaced,

1-inch long strips of VAX grease (white, PN 90948215) in the bearing

groove along each side of the VAX linear rail.

Notes: You can use any non-shedding, non-scratching applicator to

apply the grease.

Do not apply an excessive amount of grease. Any excess

grease will be pushed to the top and bottom end of the VAX

linear rail.

4. Use the supplied foam applicator to apply a thin layer of grease to the

top side of the VAX rail to prevent potential oxidation.

Note: You can use any non-shedding, non-scratching applicator to

apply the grease.

Figure 7 Apply four 1-inch strips of VAX grease in the bearing groove along each side of the VAX

linear rail.

5. While supporting the transporter from the bottom, remove the binder

clip and slowly move the transporter from the middle to the top of the

VAX linear rail, and then allow the transporter to slide down to its

resting position.

The VAX linear rail bearings will spread the grease along the rail.

Note: As you move the transporter, listen for any abnormal sounds (for

example, metal-on-metal grinding or screeching). Contact

Spectra Logic Technical Support if any abnormal sounds are

detected (see Spectra Logic Technical Support on page 2).

6. Any excess grease will gather at the top and bottom ends of the VAX

linear rail. Wipe away any excess grease with a lint-free cleaning wipe.

Note: Do not use alcohol.

HAX and VAX Lubrication Instructions Lubricate the Thomson Rod

April 2012 HAX and VAX Lubrication Instructions—Spectra T950 Library 9

LUBRICATE THE THOMSON ROD

Use the following steps to lubricate the Thomson rod.

1. While supporting the bottom of the transporter, lift it until it is

positioned near the middle of the VAX column.

2. Use a large binder clip to pinch the two sides of the VAX belt together,

securing the elevated transporter in place.

Note: The VAX belt is the long belt located on the left side of the VAX

column, as viewed from the front of the transporter.

3. Gently push the bottom of the VAX column to move it toward the

center of the library so that you can access as much of the Thomson rod

as possible.

4. Reach in through the end of the library to clean the reachable portion of

the Thomson rod using a lint-free cleaning wipe moistened with

isopropyl alcohol.

Caution

Do not push or pull on the VAX column too forcefully or quickly. Doing so can cause

the HAX sync belt to slip, resulting in VAX column alignment problems.

5. Using the supplied applicator, apply a thin, even layer of HAX grease

(green or blue, PN 90948180) to the reachable portions of the Thomson

rod. Use enough grease so that the shaft has a slippery film over its

entire surface, with no excess grease.

Note: You can use any non-shedding, non-scratching applicator to

apply the grease.

6. Slowly and gently pull the VAX column to the end of the Thomson rod;

then push the VAX column back along the Thomson rod, as far as you

can reach.

As you move the VAX column, listen for any abnormal sounds (for

example, metal-on-metal grinding or screeching). Contact Spectra

Logic Technical Support if any abnormal sounds are detected (see

Spectra Logic Technical Support on page 2).

7. Repeat Step 5 and Step 6 until the linear bearing block’s interior grease

reservoirs are filled with grease. The bearings will then be able to

distribute the grease evenly along the entire length of the Thomson rod.

You will be able to tell that the linear bearing block’s grease reservoirs

are sufficiently filled when a uniform ring of excess grease gathers at

the end of the Thomson rod.

8. Wipe away any excess grease with a lint-free cleaning wipe.

Note: Do not use alcohol.

the Thomson rod’s reachable surface.
