General Safety Precautions
●
Do not try to lift objects that you think are too heavy for you.
●
When you install equipment in a rack, load heavier devices in the lower half of the rack first to
avoid making the rack top-heavy.
●
For Summit desktop equipment installations, do not place a monitor or other heavy objects on top of
the equipment. The chassis cover is not designed to support weight.
●
Use only tools and equipment that are in perfect condition. Do not use equipment with
visible damage.
●
Route cables in a manner that prevents possible damage to the cables and avoids causing accidents,
such as tripping.
