Removing and Replacing the Backplane Cover
Step 3
Remove the fifteen, 10-mm M-3 Phillips that secure the backplane cover to the backplane.
These screws are located around the flange of the backplane cover (two on each side, six
along the top, and five along the bottom). (See Figure 6.)
Caution
To prevent loosening the backplane from the chassis, remove only those screws that
secure the backplane cover to the backplane. Do not remove any adjacent screws.
Step 4
With all screws removed, carefully guide the backplane cover out and away from the
backplane, arbiter, and CI. (See Figure 6.)
Note
Depending on the replacement procedures you need to perform, refer to the appropriate
sections, and then to replace the backplane cover, proceed to Step 5, which follows.
Step 5
To replace the backplane cover, carefully guide the cover into the chassis opening over the
arbiter and CI, over the guide pins on the backplane (see Figure 6), and align the screw
holes in the cover with the holes on the backplane and standoffs.
Step 6
Loosely install the fifteen screws around the flange of the backplane cover. (See Figure 6.)
Do not tighten these screws.
