CAUTION
Never block the ventilation holes in a chassis.
Sufficient air circulation is required for the internal
components to operate properly and to prevent the possibility
of fire. Do not push objects of any kind into the ventilation
holes. Such action could result in fire or electrical shock.
Keep all liquids away from Axiom components.
CAUTION
Ensure that component weight distribution in the
rack is balanced. Uneven weight distribution can cause
hazardous instability. The rack should have stabilization feet
or brackets installed, or have another means that does not
allow the rack to tip when you service it. At a minimum, we
recommend that you install stabilization brackets on the rear
feet of the rack because the rack is front-heavy.
CAUTION
Slammers weigh 100 lb (45.4 kg). To handle them
safely, use an appropriate number of persons.
CAUTION
Qualified personnel are advised to exercise great
care at all times when they work on an Axiom system.
Remember to:
• Remove rings, watches, or other jewelry and neckties
before you begin any procedure.
• Use caution near fan assemblies; the moving parts can
change speed unexpectedly.
• Use the correct tools for the job.
• Keep all paperwork up to date, complete, and accurate.
CAUTION
The sum of the ratings of the components that
plug into the PDU must be less than 80% of the current and
power ratings of the PDU. Similarly, the current rating of the
PDU must be less than 80% of the rating for the building
supply circuit.
