Esd And Safety Precautions - Sun Microsystems Server X4-2 Installation Manual

ESD and Safety Precautions

Electronic equipment is susceptible to damage by static electricity. Use a grounded
antistatic wriststrap, footstrap, or equivalent safety equipment to prevent
electrostatic discharge (ESD) when you install or service the server.
Caution – To protect electronic components from electrostatic damage, which can
permanently disable the system or require repair by service technicians, place
components on an antistatic surface, such as an antistatic discharge mat, an antistatic
bag, or a disposable antistatic mat. Wear an antistatic grounding strap connected to a
metal surface on the chassis when you work on system components.
Read the safety information in the Sun Server X4-2 Safety and Compliance Guide and in
the Important Safety Information for Oracle's Hardware Systems before installing the
server.
Caution – Deploy the anti-tilt bar or legs on the equipment rack before beginning an
installation.
Caution – The server weighs approximately 18.0 kg (40.0 pounds). Two people are
required to lift and mount this 1 rack unit (1U) server into a rack enclosure when
using the procedures in this document.
Caution – When completing a two-person procedure, always communicate your
intentions clearly before, during, and after each step to minimize confusion.
