Allow the tool unload cycle to complete without interruption. Observe the spindle and magazine operation.

Verify that the tool is properly seated in the magazine and the gripper has released correctly.

Check that the message clears automatically once the unload sequence finishes successfully.

If the message persists after completion, check PLC tool change status signals and verify no mechanical obstructions exist.

Do not open guards or interfere with the tool changer during active motion

Confirm whether a manual tool unload was intentionally requested via the operator panel or service functions.

Monitor the tool change gripper and spindle orientation to ensure proper mechanical sequence execution.

Verify tool is safely returned to the correct magazine pocket or to the operator's hand if manual exchange.

Ensure proper safety procedures are followed during manual tool handling

Acknowledge or reset the message after successful tool removal and verify spindle is empty if required.

Check PLC diagnostics for tool changer feedback signals: gripper closed, tool clamped, magazine position, and arm rotation sensors.

Set machine to safe mode before checking mechanical components

Inspect the tool gripper mechanism for proper air pressure (typically 6 bar), mechanical damage, or tool retention issues.

Verify the tool magazine pocket is accessible and not blocked, and that the tool orientation matches the expected position.

Review NC program and machine data (MD and SD) related to tool management for correct configuration, especially tool change parameters and timeout values.
