Replacing a fan tray

CAUTION:

When you replace a fan tray from a running switch, be cautious
of electricity hazards, and do not touch the rotating fan to avoid
bodily injury.

If a fan tray fails, finish replacing the fan tray within 5 minutes. If
both fan trays fail, finish replacing the fan trays within 3 minutes
to avoid switch damage.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure the new fan tray is the same model as the one to be
replaced.

contact and is correctly grounded.
