General safety

When you service the Storwize
Use the following general rules to ensure safety to yourself and others.
• Observe good housekeeping in the area where the devices are kept during and after maintenance.
• Follow the guidelines when lifting any heavy object:
1. Ensure that you can stand safely without slipping.
2. Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
3. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt to lift.
4. Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg muscles; this action removes the strain from the
muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any objects that weigh more than 18 kg (40 lb) or objects
that you think are too heavy for you.
• Do not perform any action that causes a hazard or makes the equipment unsafe.
• Before you start the device, ensure that other personnel are not in a hazardous position.
• Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, away from all personnel, while you are servicing
the unit.
• Keep your tool case away from walk areas so that other people cannot trip over it.
