Removing and Installing the Top Cover

WARNING
Make sure that the rack is anchored securely so it will not tilt forward
when the server chassis is extended. A crush hazard exists should the
rack tilt forward.
CAUTION
Do not leave the chassis cover open or a system fan removed any longer than
necessary; system cooling could be reduced. Do not operate the server with
the cover removed.

Removing the Top Cover

To remove the top cover, refer to Figure 52 and follow these instructions:
1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions described in Warnings and Cautions and in Before
Top Cover or Module Removal.
2. If the chassis is rack-mounted, slide the chassis out far enough to expose the back area of the
top cover (see cautions and warnings above).
3. To open the top cover, use a screwdriver or a coin to turn the locking mechanism to the
unlocked position.
4. Push the top cover towards the back of the system until it stops, approximately 1-inch towards
the rear.
5. Lift the cover up from the front and remove it from the chassis.
