Carrier Removal and Insertion

A carrier operates by raising or lowering a PCI card into or out of a card socket. The
vertical movement is approximately 0.4 in./10 mm.
A small metal latch (item 3 in
latch locks the carrier handle in the extended position. This action prevents the
carrier plate and PCI card from falling and damaging the PCI slot connector as you
pull the carrier unit out of the carrier slot.
