  • Page 34: General Safety Precautions

    General Safety Precautions Follow these rules to ensure general safety: Keep the area around the SuperServer 5014C-MR clean and free of clutter. The SuperServer 5014C-MR weighs approximately 23 lbs (~10.5 kg) when fully loaded. When lifting the system, two people at either end should lift slowly with their feet spread out to distribute the weight.
  • Page 35: Esd Precautions

    ESD Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can damage electronic com ponents and printed circuit boards. The following measures are generally suffi cient to neutralize this difference before contact is made to protect your equipment from ESD: Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
  • Page 36: Operating Precautions

    Operating Precautions Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the 5014C-MR is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the 5014C-MR system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed.
