Figure 3-8 Installing a fabric module
Installing a filler panel in a fabric module slot
1.
Loosen the captive screws on the ejector levers and rotate outward the ejector levers.
2.
Orient the filler panel with the side marked "UP" up. Hold the filler panel front panel near the
ejector levers with one hand and support its bottom with the other. Place the filler panel bottom
gently on the bottom guide rails of the chassis. Align the filler panel with the fabric module slot.
Push the filler panel slowly into the slot along the guide rails. See callout 1 in
Keep the filler panel parallel to the fabric module slot to avoid touching other components in
the chassis.
3.
As shown by callout 2 in
, continue to push the filler panel until the brakes on its
ejector levers touch the slot edges tightly. Simultaneously rotate the ejector levers inward.
4.
As shown by callout 3 in
, fasten the captive screws on the ejector levers.
As a best practice, use a torque of 5 kgf-cm (0.49 Nm) to fasten the captive screws.
