A fully equipped router with six power modules can weigh as much as 375 lbs (170.5 kg); an empty
chassis weighs 150 lbs (67.8 kg). The chassis is designed to be lifted by two persons after you remove
some of the components, such as line cards, power supplies, and the fan tray, to reduce the weight before
lifting the chassis. See the "Removing Components Before Installing the Chassis" section on page 2-18
for procedures to remove these components.
