WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, observe the following precautions:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage when unloading a rack:
• At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack can weigh as much as
115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and might become unstable when being moved on its casters.
• Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet. Always handle the rack from both
sides.
CAUTION: Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack. Install the heaviest
item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
CAUTION: Before installing the system in a rack, be sure to properly scope the limitations of the rack. Before proceeding
with the installation, consider the following:
• You must fully understand the static and dynamic load carrying capacity of the rack and be sure that it can
accommodate the weight of the system.
• Be sure sufficient clearance exists for cabling, installation and removal of the system, and movement of the rack
doors.
IMPORTANT: The HPE Apollo 4200 Gen10 System cable management arm is not supported on Compaq-branded 7000
series racks.
