Chassis Lifting Guidelines

Documentation

The weight of a fully configured router is about 663.6 lb (301.0 kg). Observe the following

guidelines for lifting and moving the router:

Do not attempt to lift a fully configured router by yourself. Using a mechanical lift to

maneuver the router into a rack is recommended. If a lift cannot be used, a minimum

of 4 people are required to lift the router, and you must remove components from the

chassis before lifting.

Before lifting or moving the router, disconnect all external cables.

As when lifting any heavy object, lift most of the weight with your legs rather than your

back. Keep your knees bent and your back relatively straight and avoid twisting your

body as you lift. Balance the load evenly and be sure that your footing is solid.
