General Handling Precautions
ESD Precautions
•
When the case of your server is open and its internal parts are exposed, do not touch any
internal part without first grounding yourself to the chassis.
•
Always wear a ground strap or work on an ESD-protective mat.
•
DO NOT remove components from protective packaging until you are properly grounded.
•
Handle printed circuit boards by their edges or by the metal bracket.
•
Don't touch any pin, contact, lead or component on the printed circuit boards.
•
Keep disk drives in their anti-static package until they are ready to be installed in the server.
Mechanical Concerns
•
Be careful when installing I/O cards into your system. Excessive force can damage the PC
boards, cables or the motherboard.
•
Be sure each board is aligned with its slot in the mating connector before installing. Use care
to not flex any PC boards.
•
Interface cable connectors must be mated carefully. Use care to not bend any of the pins. The
connectors provided are keyed to prevent upside-down insertion.
•
Interface cables are fragile and must not be pinched. Ensure that their dress does not restrict
airflow from fans or heat sinks within the enclosure.
•
Prior to installation, keep disk drives stored in a foam-lined protective carton to protect them
from physical damage.
Installing/Removing I/O Cards
Request separate repair and replacement part documentation from 360 Systems' Technical
Service Department. Tel: +1 (818) 991-0360. Any repair, adjustment or service operation must
be performed by a qualified technician.
MAXX-1200 Owner's Manual
Observe electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions to avoid
damaging static-sensitive components when handling any
PC card or disk drive.
