Pull on both ejector handles to partially remove the SC from the chassis
Use caution when handling the SC. A fully loaded SC (with fans) weighs 27 lbs (12.25 kg).
An empty SC (no fans) weighs 21.8 lbs (9.89 kg).

We recommend that you remove or replace the SC and fan modules as a single unit to save the replacement
