Chassis-Lifting Guidelines
Two or more people are required to lift the chassis. Each time you lift the chassis or any heavy object,
follow these guidelines:
•
Do not remove installed components from the chassis until you are ready to install it into a rack.
•
When ready to install the Cisco RFGW-10 UEQAM into a rack it is recommended to remove all
components except the fan tray, two TCC cards, and the 12 RF Switch cards. In this configuration
the chassis weighs 139 lbs (63.2 kg).
•
Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.
•
Never attempt to lift the chassis by yourself. Because of the size and weight of the chassis, use at
least two people to safely lift and move it without causing injury or damaging the equipment.
•
Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the chassis between your feet.
•
Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
•
Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the
chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your back muscles.
Note
To unpack the Cisco RFGW-10 UEQAM, it is recommended that the chassis installation handles be
installed to help facilitate lifting of the chassis off the palette.
Note
When moving a fully loaded Cisco RFGW-10 UEQAM chassis, it is recommended that a hand lift and
a hydraulic lift or forklift be used.

Step 1
Each person should stand on either side of the chassis and place one hand under the air intake at the
bottom front of the chassis.
Step 2
With the other hand, grasp the top rear of the chassis under the air exhaust and carefully lift the chassis.
