Unpacking and Transporting the Device

a) Cut the bands that encircle the packaging.
b) Open the top of the shipping box and remove the accessory kit, the rack mount kits, and the foam from the top of
the device.
c) Lift the cardboard shipping container and the inner cardboard sleeve off the device.

g) Save the foam packing material and wooden pallet for reuse.
2. Use a pallet jack or other assisted lift to transport the device to the installation area. Ensure that the doorways are
wider than 36 in. (91 cm) to accommodate the device.
3. Remove the chassis door if installed.
4. Use a lift to raise the device to the correct level. Use two people, one to operate the lift and the other to secure the
device on the lift.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to lift or support the chassis by the logo bezel attached over the port-side air vents.
NOTE
Orient the device on the lift so that you can slide it into the correct side of the rack to provide cool air intake.
Fans and power supply FRUs in this device have a green "E" or "I" symbol on the FRU faceplate. An "E"
indicates that the FRU pulls air from the port side of the device and exhausts out the nonport side. An "I"
indicates that the FRU pulls air from the nonport side of the device and exhausts out the nonport side. Fans
and power supplies must have the same airflow indicator. Be sure that you are pulling cool air into the air
intake side of the device. For more details, see
.
5. If applicable, lock the wheels of the lift.
6. Install the applicable rack mount kit in your equipment rack and mount the device using the rack mount kit's installation
instructions.
NOTE
When installing the device into the rack, use one person on each side of the device to gently slide it onto the
final installation surface and ensure that it remains supported during the transfer.
7. Reinstall the chassis door. The door must be installed to meet EMI compliance.
