Safety Precautions

Technician Notes
• Only authorized technicians should attempt to repair this equipment.
Before installing this system, carefully read all the manuals included with the system.
•
All repair procedures allow only module replacement. Because of the
•
complexity of the individual boards and sub-assembles, no one should attempt
to make repairs at the component level or make modifications to any printed
wiring board. Improper repairs can create a safety hazard.
To reduce the risk of personal injury from electric shock and hazardous energy
•
levels, do not exceed the level of repairs specified in these procedures.
The system is designed to be electrically grounded. To ensure proper operation,
•
plug the AC power cord into a properly grounded AC outlet only.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static sensitive devices or micro
•
circuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are required to prevent
damage.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at a
•
static free work area.
Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface as well as properly grounded
•
tools and equipment
Keep the area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary plastic
•
tools and foam packing.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
•
Always place drives with printed circuit board (PCB) assembly-side down.
•
Grasp cards and boards by the edges. Hold drives by the frame. Avoid
•
touching the solder joints or pins.
