The major subassemblies of the Manipulator Positioning Mechanism (MPM) are described and illustrated. The Space Shuttle Orbiter design provides that the MPM may be mounted on either left or right sides of the payload bay, or both sides if two are flown. This MPM is provided for the purpose of securing the remote arm in stowed position during lift-off, boost, and landing. It also provides the deploy, latch and unlatch capabilities of the Remote Manipulator System arm.
