Rack Warnings and Precautions

Server Warnings and Precautions

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, at
least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty
42U rack weighs 253 lb (115 kg), is over seven ft (2.1m) tall, and may become
unstable when being moved on its casters. Do not stand in front of the rack as it
rolls down the ramp from the pallet; handle it from the sides.
WARNING: A rack may become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason. To reduce the risk of personal injury, always be sure
that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component outside the
rack, and extend only one component at a time.
WARNING: Before beginning to work on the rack, be sure that the leveling
jacks are extended to the floor, that the full weight of the rack rests on the level
floor, and that stabilizers are installed or that multiple racks are coupled for
stability.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, a
minimum of two people MUST lift the server into the rack. The server can weigh
up to 81 lb (37 kg). If the unit is to be loaded above chest level, a third person
MUST assist in aligning the rails while the first two support the unit.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
hot-plug drives and internal system components to cool before touching.
WARNING: This equipment is designed for connection to a grounded AC outlet.
The grounding-type plug is an important safety feature. To avoid risk of electric
shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable this feature.
