1. A method of conveying a substrate from a first base including a first substrate holding mechanism and a first fluid jetting mechanism to a second base including a second substrate holding mechanism using a conveyor including a third substrate holding mechanism and a second fluid jetting mechanism, the method comprising:

  • the conveyor attaching the third substrate holding mechanism to the substrate with the first substrate holding mechanism holding the substrate;

    driving the third substrate holding mechanism so as to hold the substrate by the conveyor while the first base is holding the substrate, and thereafter canceling the holding of the substrate by the first substrate holding mechanism and jetting out fluid from the first fluid jetting mechanism;

    conveying the substrate from the first base to the second base and attaching the substrate to the second substrate holding mechanism; and

    driving the second substrate holding mechanism so as to hold the substrate by the second base while the third substrate holding mechanism is holding the substrate, and thereafter jetting out fluid from the second fluid jetting mechanism and canceling the holding of the substrate by the third substrate holding mechanism.
