Installing the frame in a rack-free environment

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment in a rack-free environment:
• Never stack the frame on top of another frame.
• Never place equipment on top of the frame.
• Never place the frame on a surface that cannot support up to 249.50 kg ( 550.00 lb).
Procedure
1. Select the location for the frame.
For more information, see Rack-free environment requirements on page 9.
2. Remove components from the frame.
3. Place the frame on a flat, sturdy surface to support the frame.
4. Complete the component installation for your configuration.

Installing the frame in a rack

CAUTION: Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack. Install the
heaviest item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
NOTE: Up to four 10U frames can be installed in a 42U rack. If you are installing more than one frame, install the first
frame in the bottom of the rack, and then install additional frames by moving up the rack with each subsequent frame.
Plan rack installation carefully because it is difficult to change the location of components after they are installed.
