Caution: Follow these general safety precautions to protect yourself from harm and the
SGI Altix XE250 from damage.
Keep the area around the SGI Altix XE250 clean and free of clutter. Failure to do so may
cause the system to become overheated and damage the equipment.
The SGI Altix XE250 weighs approximately 57 lbs (26 kg) when fully loaded. When lifting
the system, two people at either end should lift slowly with their feet spread out to distribute
the weight. Always keep your back straight and lift with your legs. Failure to use proper
lifting techniques may result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Place the chassis top cover and any system components that you remove on a sturdy
ESD-safe table. Failure to do so may result in equipment damage from electrostatic
discharge.
Do not wear loose clothing such as neckties or unbuttoned shirt sleeves which can come into
contact with electrical circuits or be pulled into a cooling fan. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent conductors of
electricity and can create short circuits. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure it to the rack
unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all connections have been made.
