Bull 296/C3, Manual, Page: 22 / 123

Placing the 296/C3 into the Service Position
Attention: When placing the 296/C3 into the service position, it is essential that all stability plates are
firmly in position to prevent the rack from toppling (see the illustration on page 7). Ensure that only one
system drawer is in the service position at a time.
Note: Before doing any work inside the 296/C3, place the system into the service position.
To place the 296/C3 in to the service position, do the following:
1. Open the front rack door.
2. If your system is equipped with two thumbscrews securing it to the rack, remove the thumbscrews. The
screws are located on the bezel, just above each system drawer release latch.
