Warning
Do not attempt to lift the chassis with the handles on the back and sides of the
chassis. These handles are not designed to support the weight of the chassis,
and should be used only to steady and guide the chassis while it is being
inserted into or removed from an equipment rack. To reduce the risk of damage
to the chassis and serious bodily injury, do not use these handles to lift or
support the chassis.
