General Installation Instructions - Dell 8 Installation Manual

• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to
the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests
on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front
stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item
in the rack first.
• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component
from the rack.
• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding
a component into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the
rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch
circuit rating.
• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
• Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other
components in a rack.
