About Cautions

CAUTION:

A CAUTION indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death.

Installing the Stabilizer Feet and/or the Optional Casters
on Your System

This document provides instructions for installing the stabilizer feet and/or the optional casters
on your system. To prepare your system, perform the following steps:

1 Disconnect the system and any attached peripherals from their electrical outlets, and then

disconnect the peripherals from the system.

CAUTION:

The system may weigh up to 45 kilograms (100 pounds) when fully loaded. To prevent

personal injury, do not attempt to move the system by yourself.

2 Place the system on a flat work surface with the bottom of the system overhanging the surface

edge.

Installing the Stabilizer Feet

NOTE:

If you plan to install the optional casters, you must install the casters on the stabilizer feet before

installing the feet on your system. See "Installing the Optional Casters" for instructions.

To install the stabilizer foot on the system, align the foot tabs with the chassis cutouts on the
bottom of the system, and slide the tabs into the cutouts until the tabs lock into place in the
foot tab slots. See Figure 1. Repeat to install the remaining foot.

Installing the Optional Casters

NOTE:

For an existing configuration, you must remove the stabilizer feet from the system before

installing the casters. See "Removing the Stabilizer Feet" for instructions.

1 Slide the caster plate under the caster retaining tabs on the stabilizer foot until the caster

locking tab locks into place behind the caster. See Figure 1. Repeat to install the remaining
three casters, installing two casters per foot.

2 Install the stabilizer feet on your system. See "Installing the Stabilizer Feet."

Removing the Stabilizer Feet

To remove the stabilizer foot from the system, locate the foot tabs, which are locked in the foot
tab slots. Press down and hold both tabs, and then slide the foot away from the slots until the
tabs are free from the chassis. See Figure 1. Repeat to remove the remaining foot.
