Safety Tips
Caution: A fully loaded enclosure is heavy. Reduce the weight
of the enclosure by removing the drive carriers before
installing the enclosure in the rack or tower. (You can also
remove the two APCs to further reduce the weight, if
required. See the Adaptec Storage Enclosure Installation and
User’s Guide on the CD for instructions.)
Caution: To prevent personal injury, have someone assist you
during rack installation.
Caution: If you are installing your enclosure in a rack, prevent
personal injury and equipment damage by following the rack
manufacturer’s safety instructions. Install your enclosure only
in a rack that has been properly secured in an area with
suitable environmental conditions.
