Rack warnings and cautions

WARNING:

When all components are removed, the server weighs 10.40 kg (22.93 lb). When all components are installed, the server can

weigh up to 19.00 kg (41.89 lb).

Before configuring your rack solution, be sure to check the rack manufacturer weight limits and specifications. Failure to do

so can result in physical injury or damage to the equipment and the facility.

WARNING:

The server is heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, do the following:

Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.

Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the product is not fastened to

the rails. The server weighs more than 10.40 kg (22.93 lb), so at least two people must lift the server into the rack

together. An additional person may be required to help align the server if the server is installed higher than chest level.

Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack.

Adequately stabilized the rack before extending a component outside the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A

rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended.

Do not stack anything on top of rail-mounted component or use it as a work surface when extended from the rack.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, observe the following precautions:

The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.

The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.

The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage when unloading a rack:

At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack can weigh as much as 115

kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and might become unstable when being moved on its casters.

Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet. Always handle the rack from both

sides.

CAUTION:

Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack. Install the heaviest item first, and

continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.

CAUTION:

Before installing the server in a rack, be sure to properly scope the limitations of the rack. Before proceeding with the

installation, consider the following:

You must fully understand the static and dynamic load carrying capacity of the rack and be sure that it can

accommodate the weight of the server.

Be sure sufficient clearance exists for cabling, installation and removal of the server, and movement of the rack doors.
