Rack Safety and Precautions
WARNING:
Possible personal injury:
•
Lifting hazard: The library weighs 44.45 kg (98 lb) plus the weight of
the drives. Use at least two people and a mechanical device to lift and
position the library. Make sure you read the information in
"Lifting Techniques" on page xi
•
Also consider the library's total weight when you are placing other
equipment into the rack. To prevent an unbalanced situation, install
the heaviest equipment on the bottom and the lightest equipment on
the top. Failure to do so might cause the rack to become unstable
and tip over.
Observe the following safety precautions when you are installing the library
into a rack:
•
If the rack has front or rear doors, do not allow the doors to interfere with
the library's ventilation. The rack's internal ambient temperature should not
exceed the recommended operating temperature range of the library. The
maximum rack air ambient temperature is 40°C (104°F).
•
Ensure that rack doors provide adequate clearance to the library.
•
Ensure that the combination of the library with other equipment in the rack
does not create an overcurrent condition, whether the equipment is
connected directly to the branch circuit or to a power distribution strip.
•
Ensure that all equipment in the rack has reliable earth ground, whether the
equipment is connected directly to the branch circuit or to a power
distribution strip.
Note: The library relies on the ground pin of the power cord for its earth

ground.
