Keep the area around the InfoCaster chassis clean and free of clutter.
To avoid injuries to the back, be sure to use your leg muscles, keep your
back straight, and bend your knees, when lifting the system.
Avoid wearing loose clothing to preventing it from coming into contact
with power circuits.
After removing the components or chassis covers from the system, place
them on a table for safeguard.
Be sure to remove any jewelry or metal objects before working on the
chassis to avoid short circuits should these objects come into contact with
power circuits.
After accessing the interior of the chassis, be sure to close the chassis with
the chassis covers and secure the chassis to the racks with screws.
The following measures are generally sufficient to protect against Electric
Statics Discharge (ESD).
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their anti-static
bags until ready for use.

anti-static bag.
Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing,
