General Safety Precautions

!
Follow these rules to ensure general safety:
! Keep the area around the SuperServer 8042-8/8042-6 clean and free of
clutter.
! The SuperServer 8042-8/8042-6 weighs approximately 70 lbs (32 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. Always keep your
back straight and lift with your legs.
! Place the chassis top/side cover and any system components that have
been removed away from the system or on a table so that they won't
accidentally be stepped on.
! While working on the system, do not wear loose clothing such as neckties
and unbuttoned shirt sleeves, which can come into contact with electrical
circuits or be pulled into a cooling fan.
! Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent
metal conductors that can create short circuits and harm you if they come
into contact with printed circuit boards or areas where power is present.
