Do not install the server in dusty, humid, smoke or oily place. Also avoid installing the server in a place
exposed to direct sunlight.
Use the power cord that comes with your blade enclosure or NEC-specified power cord.
Plug in to a proper power source.
Do not install the enclosure where you need an extension cord.
(2) Gently put the CPU blade on the
clean, rigid, and flat desk. Loosen
the screw of the ejector to allow the
ejector to be opened.
(3) Hold the frame of the CPU blade so
that its MP connector faces the
Blade Enclosure and the hard disk

Do not hold the ejector to install the CPU blade in the Blade Enclosure.
The ejector may be disengaged from the CPU blade that causes the CPU
blade to fall down. Or, the ejector may be bent that causes damage to
the CPU blade.
