Page 12: Safety Considerations
Review and follow these important safety recommendations: ● For ESD protection, Dell EMC recommends that you wear a suitable antistatic wrist or ankle strap. Observe all conventional ESD precautions when handling plug-in modules and components. ● All plug-in modules and blank plates are part of the fire enclosure system and should not be removed unless a replacement can be added immediately. -
Page 13: Working With A Portable Lift
● Always disconnect the power connections before moving the system. ● If you think the unit is damaged in any way, permanently unplug it. ● CAUTION: The system components are heavy. To avoid personal injury and/or damage to the equipment, do not attempt to install or remove system components without a mechanical lift and/or help from another person. -
