(4.5 kg). Be prepared to support the full weight as you slide the line card

Before you slide the line card into the slot on the switch chassis, ensure
the line card is aligned correctly. Misalignment might cause the pins to
bend, making the line card unusable.
Lift the line card, and position it in the chassis with the faceplate facing you and the

the line card is fully seated (see Figure 60 on page 157 and Figure 61 on page 157).
