Before you remove the filter, use a flashlight to ensure that no GigaRing
or torus cables touch the top surface of the filter.
NOTE:
If any cables touch the filter, you should not replace the filter
during customer operation due to the risk of pinching or
otherwise damaging the cables. Instead, restore the filter to the
operating position, close the front cabinet door, and arrange
system downtime with the customer. With the system down,
you can tie wrap all loose torus and GigaRing cables so that
they do not touch the filter.

Pull the old filter from the cabinet. The new filter should catch debris that

replacement filter.
