This machine will push all items that feeds into it into an inventory behind it. If no inventory exists, it will spit the item out that direction. If the manipulator is shift clicked with a wrench, it change its mode to output mode, and will eject items from the inventory behind it out to its front. If the inventory does not exist, it will simply suck nearby items into it. The manipulator can interact with inventories on all of its sides

The Manipulator needs to be powered. Connect it with the same power as the Conveyor Belt in order to have it working. Power the Manipulator from below.

Using the Manipulator

Retrieving items

In order for the Manipulator to retrieve one item from a adjacent chest or machine the Manipulator needs a Redstone signal. You can connect a Lever or make a Redstone timer to have it retrieve items and place it on the Conveyer belt. It only takes 1 item per Redstone signal.

Placing items

When the Manipulator is placed to insert items into an inventory it does not need a Redstone signal. It will automatically place the item into the adjacent inventory. If you want to insert items into machinery you need to make sure the Manipulator is placed properly on the machine. For example a Furnace needs its items from the top, in order to place items in that slot place the Manipulator on the top of the Machine.

You will need to power the machine with electricity in order for it to accept items.
