Operating the
BladeFrame
BF200
BladeLatch
All blades feature the BladeFrame BF200 BladeLatch, which
ensures that a blade is properly seated in the BladeFrame BF200
chassis.
To correctly seat a blade, you lock it into the chassis with the
BladeLatch using a continuous motion. After you slide the blade
into the chassis, push the blade into the BladeFrame BF200 until its
BladeLatch “pops” out.
The following steps break up the essential elements of this motion.
1. Firmly push the BladeLatch back into the face of the bezel until
it stops.
2. Release the BladeLatch and allow it to spring back until it is
flush (or near flush) with the front of the blade.
