Removing the Retainer Bar
Expansion boards and slot covers are held in place by a retainer bar.
Remove the retainer bar before removing or replacing expansion boards
or slot covers.
To remove the retainer bar, use the following steps.
1.
Remove the cover (see “Removing the Cover” earlier in this chapter).
2.
Press down on the two tabs on the retainer bar. This frees the ridges
on the tabs from their slots in the chassis.

Once the tabs are free, pull the retainer bar gently out of the chassis.

the bar can come out of their slots in the chassis.
