4 Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 Rack-Mount and Cable Management Kits Installation Instructions
A fully configured chassis weighs approximately 70 pounds. Whenever possible, avoid lifting
the chassis by yourself.
Ensure that your footing is solid and balance the weight of the object between your feet.
Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the
chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your lower back muscles.
Lift the chassis from the bottom; grasp the underside of the chassis exterior with both hands.
Never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis with the handles on the interface processor carriers or with
the cable management brackets. Neither the handles nor the brackets are designed to support the
weight of the chassis.
