Securing the Cabinet

Once in position, secure and stabilize the cabinet using the leveling feet at the corners of the base and install 
the anti-tip mechanisms on the bottom front and rear of the rack.

Figure 1-9

Securing the Cabinet

Unpacking a Non-Racked Server

NOTE

HP recommends the use of a lifter, such as a RonI Company model 17000 SP 400 lifting device, 
when moving a Non-Racked system.

Unloading with a Lifter

To unload the server from the pallet using a lifter, perform the following steps:

WARNING

Use caution when using a lifter. An hp server rx5670 may weigh up to 175 pounds. 
Because of the weight of the hp server rx5670, it must be centered on the lifter forks 
before raising it off the pallet to avoid injury.

1. Follow the instructions on the outside of the server packaging to remove the banding and carton top from 

the server pallet.

2. Remove all cartons from the pallet, leaving only the server.

3. Lower the cardboard from the side on which the lifter will be inserted and slide the server as close as 

possible to the edge of the pallet.

4. Break off any foam packaging which could prevent the lifter from being fully inserted under the server. 

Do not remove the foam packaging from the corners of the system. This foam is required to elevate the 
system and allow the forks of the lifter to be placed under the server.
