Installing or Replacing a Fabric Module
b) Grasp each of the two levers with your two hands and fully rotate the levers out 90 degrees from the fabric
module.
c) Pull both levers until the fabric module is about 3 inches (7 cm) out of the chassis (see Callout 3 in the
previous figure).
d) Rotate both levers back to the front of the module.
Each lever clicks when it locks in place at the front of the module.
e) Grasp the front of the module with one hand, place the other hand under the module to support its weight,
and pull the module out of the slot (see Callout 2 in the previous figure).
Caution
f) Place the module on an antistatic surface or inside an antistatic bag.
Step 3 Install the new fabric module in the chassis as follows:
a) Unpack the new fabric module and inspect it for damage.
If anything is damaged or missing, contact your customer representative immediately.
b) Hold the front of the module with one hand and place the other hand under the module.
c) Rotate the module clockwise and align the back of the module to the module guides at the top and bottom
of the open fabric slot in the chassis.
d) Push the module half way into the slot.
e) With your face away from the fabric module, press both ejector buttons on the front of the module.
Caution
Both ejector handles spring out from the front of the module (see Callout 2 in the previous figure).
f) Grasp both handles, fully rotate the levers 90 degrees from the front of the module, and push the module
all the way into the slot until it seats.
The front of the module will be about 1/4 inch out from the installed fabric modules.
g) Simultaneously rotate both handles to the front of the module while pressing the module further into the
slot.
The handles click when fully rotated to the front of the module.
h) Verify that the module is secured to the chassis and that you cannot remove it without pressing the eject
buttons.
Step 4 Reinstall the fan tray over the installed fabric module as follows:

Be careful not to touch any electrical contacts on the back of the module. Handle only covered
sides or edges of the module.
Keep your face at least 12 inches (30 cm) from the front of the fabric module so that the ejector
handles do not hit your face when they spring out from the front of the module.
