Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is well
grounded. For more information, see the chapter “Installing modules.”
3.
Use a Philips screwdriver to remove the captive screw on the card, as shown in callout 1 on
Figure
38
.
4.
Move the ejector levers outwards to separate the card from the backplane, as shown in callout 2
on
Figure 38

5.
Use one hand to slowly move the card outwards. Supporting the bottom of the card with the other
hand, pull the card out of the slot along slide rails, as shown in callout 3 on
Figure 38
