Warning, caution, and important messages

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment, heed all warnings and cautions
throughout the installation instructions.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The leveling feet are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason.
WARNING: The frame 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 installed components from the frame before installing or moving the frame.
• Use caution and get help to lift and stabilize the frame during installation or removal, especially when the frame
is not fastened to the rack.
WARNING: When lifting the frame with the optional removable handles, always use at least four people to lift the
frame into the rack. If the frame is being loaded into the rack above chest level, a fifth person must assist with
aligning the frame with the rails while the other four people support the weight of the frame. If you are using a
mechanical lift to install the frame, two people are required to install the frame into the rack.
WARNING: Install the frame starting from the bottom of the rack and work your way up the rack.
