WARNING Do not attempt to lift the server alone. The server may weight as much as 32
kilograms (70 lbs). Serious injury may result if this warning is not observed.
Step 5. If the server is slide-mounted, slowly pull the chassis forward (or push from the rear) to extend the
chassis from the rack. The server is fully extended when the rail clips are locked in place. Do not
extend tray-mounted servers. Tray-mounted servers are not locked in place and can fall if extended
from rack.
Step 6. Disengage the slides or mounting hardware and take the server to a static-free work station.
