1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The procedures in this document ensure that a 3494 not under a TRT maintenance agreement has
the necessary prerequisites installed and available to ensure a transparent transition and an
uninterrupted maintenance service during the period of the TRT maintenance agreement.

1.2 Education
All service personnel must be trained on the general maintenance agreement qualification, tailored
maintenance agreement qualification, and changed machine safety inspection procedures as part of
becoming a TRT Technical Service Representative (TSR). In addition, service personnel must also
be trained on the 3494 prior to servicing the equipment.

2 Safety and Inspection
2.1 General Information
The safety checklist procedures in this topic ensure that a 3494 not under a TRT maintenance
agreement has the necessary safety items installed and that no changes made it unsafe. Each 3494,
as designed and assembled, has safety items installed to protect operators and service personnel
from injury. These checklist procedures verify only these items.
The safety checklist procedures must be performed before the normal inspection for a maintenance
agreement. The 3494 must be considered unsafe until the presence and condition of all checklist
items are verified. If any unsafe conditions are present, you must decide how serious the hazard is
and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.
When performing the safety checklist procedures, consider the following conditions and the potential
safety hazards they present:
•
•
•

Electrical, especially primary power. For example, an electrically charged frame can cause
serious or lethal electrical shock.
Explosive. For example, damaged or expanding capacitors can cause serious injury.
Mechanical hazards, such as missing safety covers, can cause injury to service personnel.

2.2 Preparation
The following reference items are useful during the inspection:
•
•
•
•
•

The LOC section of the 3494 Maintenance Information manual
Copies of safety service memorandums (SMs) (see Appendix B) and engineering change
announcements (ECAs) (see Appendix A) for this machine type

5 Preventive Maintenance (PM)
5.1 General Information
Wash your hands after applying the lubricants to avoid any possible adverse reaction to one of the
lubricants. Refer to the chemical safety data sheet with each lubricant for more information.
If cleaning of the external surfaces of the 3494 is required, it is recommended that you use a mild
detergent solution. Do not use abrasives, solvents, or alcohol based cleaners.

5.2 Supplies needed
P/N 0223980 - IBM Lubricant #6
P/N 0435682 – Lubriplate
P/N 1706205 - Swabs (foam tipped)
P/N 34G9329 - Reach Belt
P/N 34G9342 - Pivot Belt
P/N 34G9629 - Y-Axis Drive Belt
P/N 62G1424 - IBM 3495 Track Cable Lubricant (only for leadscrew w/o teflon)
P/N 65F5228 - Krytox Lubricant
Lint-free cloth

5.3 Procedure
Perform the following procedure once a year (or as needed) during a service call. For a high-usage

1. Lubricate the 8 wiper pads 1, 4 and 6 on the X-axis (2 top
and 2 bottom) and Y-axis (2 front and 2 back) with IBM
Lubricant #6

TRT

2. Put a few drops of IBM Lubricant #6 on a cloth and wipe the
top and bottom X-rail rods 5 and the front and back Y-rail
rods 3

TRT

3. Move the grip assembly 7 to the middle of the shafts and
apply Krytox lubricant to the shaft 2 on each side of the
bearings by using foam-tipped swabs

TRT

4. Move the grip assembly back and forth on the shafts to load
the bearings with lubricant. Wipe off the excessive
lubricant on the shafts by using a clean lint-free cloth

TRT

5. If the library has a teflon-coated (black) leadscrew, DO NOT
lubricate the leadscrew. Go to step 7

TRT

6. If your library DOES NOT have a teflon-coated leadscrew,
lubricate the leadscrew as follows:

TRT

•
•

•

ü/û

With the picker assembly at the bottom, wipe the
Y-axis leadscrew with a clean lint-free cloth
Soak a clean lint-free cloth with IBM 3495 Track
Cable Lubricant and apply the lubricant to the
exposed length of the leadscrew threads above
the leadscrew nut 8. You should see small
beads of lubricant on the leadscrew after you
have applied it
Move the picker assembly up and down the Yaxis to load the leadscrew nut with lubricant

7. Apply a thin coat of Lubriplate grease to the front door
bracket and pin. The bracket is mounted on the door and
the pin is mounted on the frame near the top of the door
opening

TRT

8. If you have a 6 to 8 frame library with the metal band X-axis
cable, apply a small amount of Lubriplate grease with a
toothpick to the plastic roller shaft of each X-axis long
cable support. The long cable supports are located
between frames 5 and 6 and between frames 6 and 7

TRT

9. Replace the pivot belt, reach belt, and Y-axis drive belt.
Refer to “Pivot Belt” on page CARR-31“Reach Belt” on
page CARR-42, and “Y-Axis Drive Belt” on page CARR66

TRT

10. Record the date and Y-axis meters traveled for this PM in
log book in the clear plastic envelope P/N 1470207
located inside the Model L1x rear door on the top of the

5.4 Operational Logs
The logs of the 3494 capture error and transaction data. This data is used for error recovery, for
debugging software, and for aiding in the development and support of the product. Of these logs, the
service representative uses only the error log and, to some extent, the transaction log. Logs are
rotated by using a push-down method. The most current log is at the top of the log group of the
Service menu. When the log is full, it is pushed down, and the oldest log in the stack is overwritten
and rotated to the top of the stack to become the new current log. View the transaction and error logs
by selecting View Logs from the Utilities menu of the library manager.

5.4.1 Error Logs
To display an error log, select Analyze Error Log from the Service pull-down. Select this option to
analyze the library manager error log entries. This selection identifies the record group for an event,
separates the information records, and displays the error code for the most important error record.
The last five error records are displayed. Please record all recent errors are there details.

7.1 Safety Service Memorandums (Sept-2004)
Abstract:

SAFETY 3494 L1X AND D1X LINE CORD CONNECTOR INSPECTION

***** SAFETY ****
TEXT: A potential line cord safety exposure exists on
frames with single-phase line cords.
Subject: Potential Safety Exposure on 3494 Machines
*************************************************
* This is a "compliance to safety standards"
*
* alert which requires mandatory action. This *
* action needs to be completed within 90 days. *
*************************************************
Machine Types:
3494
Models Affected: L10, L12, L14
Problem:
------A defect may exist with the ground pin in the plug of the input power cord for
the models listed above. This power plug can be recognized by the Russellstoll
3750DP designation on the plug end. The Russellstoll 3750DP plug has three
pins. On a normal (non-defective) plug, the ground pin has a larger diameter
than the two phase pins. On a defective plug all three pins have the same
"small" diameter.
With all of the pins being the same size, the "keying" mechanism that would
normally ensure correct "phase-to-phase" and "ground-to-ground" connections is
defeated.
Defect Impact:
1) If a defective plug is connected in the CORRECT
orientation, the safety ground may not be making a
proper connection.
2) If a defective plug is connected in the WRONG
orientation, the machine will NOT power-on.
However, it is possible for the machine frame to be
at a HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE LEVEL.
*************************************************************
*
The following inspection procedure MUST be performed:
*
*
* Prior to powering-on ANY newly-installed or
*
*
relocated machines.
*
*
* For ALL machines already installed.
*
*************************************************************
Time and materials associated with this inspection and the correction of any
defect can be accounted for by using ECA029.
