General Safety Precautions
Follow these guidelines:
•
Do not try to lift objects that you think are too heavy for you.
•
When you install equipment in a rack, load heavier devices in the lower half of the rack first to avoid
making the rack top-heavy.
•
Use only tools and equipment that are in perfect condition. Do not use equipment with visible
damage.
•
Route cables in a manner that prevents possible damage to the cables and avoids causing accidents,
such as tripping.
•
Do not place a monitor or other objects on top of the equipment. The chassis cover is not designed
to support weight.
•
To reduce the risk of fire, use only #26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord. Use only copper
conductors.
•
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
•
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in
the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor.
