Installing FortiBlade-4010 modules

Install a FortiBlade-4010 module by removing a FortiGate-4000 unit slot cover and
replacing it with a FortiBlade-4010 module. Begin installing the FortiBlade-4010
modules at slot number 1 and fill the FortiGate-4000 chassis from left to right (see

Figure 3 on page 28

for slot numbering).

1

Loosen the two screws both at the top and bottom of the FortiGate-4000 unit’s empty
slot cover that fastens the cover to the FortiGate-4000 chassis.

2

Remove the cover from the chassis.

3

Holding the FortiBlade-4010 module by the module lock and handle, insert the
FortiBlade-4010 module into the chassis. See

Figure 15

.

4

Slide the FortiBlade-4010 module into the slot until the lock clicks into place.

5

Tighten the mounting knots both at the top and bottom of the front panel of the
FortiBlade-4010 module.

Note: Do not operate the FortiGate-4000 unit with open slots on the front panel. For optimum
cooling performance, all front panel slots should either contain a FortiBlade-4010 module or be
covered by an empty slot cover.
