WARNING: The chassis is very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment:
Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material
handling.
Remove all servers from the chassis before installing or moving the chassis.
Use caution and get help to lift and stabilize the chassis during installation or removal, especially
when the chassis is not fastened to the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, you must adequately
support the chassis during installation and removal.
WARNING: Install the chassis starting from the bottom of the rack and work your way up the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
Never reach inside the chassis while the system is powered up.
Perform service on system components only as instructed in the user documentation.
CAUTION: Always be sure that equipment is properly grounded and that you follow proper grounding
procedures before beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can result in ESD damage
to electronic components. For more information, refer to "Electrostatic discharge on page 48."
CAUTION: When performing non-hot-plug operations, you must power down the server and/or the
system. However, it may be necessary to leave the server powered up when performing other
operations, such as hot-plug installations or troubleshooting.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to
thermal damage.
