Weight warning

WARNING!
The device can be very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to equipment:
• Remove all hot-pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the overall weight of the device
before lifting.
• Observe local health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the device during installation or removal, especially when the device is
not fastened to the rails. When a device weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb), at least two people must
lift the component into the rack together. If the component is loaded into the rack above chest level, a
third person must assist in aligning the rails while the other two support the device.

Rack warnings and precautions

these precautions providing for rack stability and safety, and to protect both personnel and property.
Heed all cautions and warnings included in the installation instructions.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational safety requirements and guidelines for heavy equipment handling.
• Obtain adequate assistance to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal.
• Remove all pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the weight of the product.
• Load the heaviest item first, and load the rack from the bottom up. This makes the rack
"bottom-heavy" and helps prevent the rack from becoming unstable.
• Extend the leveling jacks to the floor.
• Rest the full weight of the rack on the leveling jacks.
• Attach stabilizing feet to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• Ensure the racks are coupled in multiple-rack installations.
• Fully extend the bottom stabilizers on the equipment. Ensure that the equipment is properly
supported/braced when installing options and boards.
• Be careful when sliding rack components with slide rails into the rack. The slide rails could pinch
your fingertips.
• Ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a rack component with slide rails
outside the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A rack may become unstable if more
than one component is extended for any reason.
• Do not attempt to move a fully loaded equipment rack. Remove equipment from the rack before
moving the rack.
• At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack weighs
115 kilograms (253 pounds), is over 2.1 meters (7 feet) tall, and can become unstable when being
moved on its casters. Do not stand in front of the rack as it rolls down the ramp from the pallet;
handle it from the sides. Stabilize the device by keeping the unit on the rails.
