M1000e enclosure, and slide the blank into the enclosure until the
lower latch engages.

Opening the Blade

CAUTION:

Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system

cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before you begin this
procedure, review the safety instructions that came with the system.

1 Remove the blade from the enclosure. See "Removing a Blade" on page 96.
2 Install the I/O connector cover (s). See Figure 3-3.

A full-height blade requires two connector covers.

3 Orient the blade as shown in Figure 3-3 so that the cover-release latch

faces up.

4 Lift the cover-release latch and slide the cover toward the back of the blade

until it stops.

5 Carefully lift the cover away from the blade.
