BEFORE THE INSTALLATION
General Safety Precautions
¡ Keep the area around the Server clean and free of clutter.
¡ Servers weigh a lot. When lifting the system, two people should
lift slowly from opposite ends with their feet spread out to distrib-

legs.
¡ Place the chassis top cover and any system components that have
been removed away from the system or on a table so that they won’t
accidentally be stepped on.
¡ While working on the system, do not wear loose items such as neck-
ties and unbuttoned shirtsleeves. They can come into contact with
electrical circuits or get pulled into a cooling fan.
¡ Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are
excellent metal conductors and can create short circuits and harm
you if they come into contact with printed circuit boards or areas
where power is present.
ESD Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with dif-
ferent electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An elec-
trical discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can dam-
age electronic components and printed circuit boards. The following
measures are generally sufficient to neutralize this difference before
contact is made to protect your equipment from ESD:
