system
Use this procedure to remove the cover from a rack-mounted system so that you can access the
components or perform service.
To remove the front cover, complete the following steps:
1. Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap attached. If not, attach it now.
2. Remove the two shipping screws (A) (if present) that secure the system to the rack.
Note: Replacing the shipping screws is optional but should be done in geographic areas that are
prone to seismic activity.
3. Pull the cover away from the system. The cover has an indentation where you can hold onto it more
easily.
