Safety Instructions
Always use caution when servicing any electrical component. Before handling the Magma Expansion
chassis, read the following instructions and safety guidelines to prevent damage to the product and to
ensure your own personal safety.
Materials handling
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
1.
Practice local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for handling
materials.
2.
Obtain assistance to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal.
3.
The weight of this part or unit is between 60 to 70 lbs. It requires two people to safely lift up the
unit. To prevent personal injury or damage to the chassis, never attempt to lift expansion
chassis alone.
4.
Disconnect all cabling and pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the weight of
the product.
5.
Be careful when pressing the rail release latches and sliding the product into the rack. The slide
rails could pinch your fingertips.
6.
Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rack ambient temperatures will exceed the
manufacturer's recommended ambient temperature for all your rack-mounted devices.
7.
Connect all devices installed in a rack cabinet to power devices installed in the same rack
cabinet. Do not plug a power cord from a device installed in one rack cabinet into a power
device installed in a different rack cabinet.
Rack Stability
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, the rack must be secured adequately to
prevent it from becoming unstable and/or falling over.
1.
Extend the leveling jacks to the floor.
2.
Ensure that the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
3.
Install stabilizing feet on the rack.
4.
In a multiple-rack installation, fasten the racks together securely.
5.
Extend only one rack component at a time. Racks can become unstable if more than one
component is extended.
6.
Load the rack from the bottom up, starting with the heaviest component.
7.
Ensure that the component is properly mated with the rails, or the rails may be unstable.
8.
Do not attempt to move a fully loaded rack. Remove components from the rack before
moving it.
9.
Do not attempt to move a rack on an incline that is greater than 10 degrees from horizontal.
