Figure 11: The fan tray

Important: This product is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). F5 recommends that you use proper
ESD grounding procedures and equipment when you install or maintain the unit.

Replacing the fan tray

You do not need special tools to replace the fan tray. You do not need to power down the unit when replacing
the fan tray; however, F5 highly recommends that you do not leave the unit operating without a fan tray for
longer than 30 seconds.

Caution: Operating the unit without a fan tray for more than 30 seconds might cause permanent damage.

1.

Stand at the back of the platform and locate the ejector handle on the fan tray.

2.

Loosen the fan tray screws by turning them counterclockwise with a Phillips screwdriver, if necessary.

Note: The screws that hold the ejector handle in place are captive and cannot be removed from the
assembly.

3.

Grasp the ejector handle and rotate it downward to eject the fan tray from the system.
