Placing the Model 6C4 into the Service Position
Attention: When placing the Model 6C4 into the service position, it is essential that
all stability plates are firmly in position to prevent the rack from toppling. Ensure that
only one system drawer is in the service position at a time.
Before doing any service actions inside the Model 6C4, you must put the system into
the service position. To place the system into the service position, do the following:
1. Open the front rack door.
2. If your system is equipped with two thumbscrews securing it to the rack, remove the
thumbscrews at this time. The screws are located on the bezel, just above each
system release latch.

3. Release the left and right side system release latches.
4. Pull the system drawer out from the rack until the rails are fully extended.
Note: When the system rails are fully extended, safety latches on the slide rails lock
into place. This prevents the system from being accidentally pulled out too far
and dropped. The following illustration shows a system drawer in the service
position.
