3.2 Accessing the System
The SCLB16TS chassis features a removable top cover, which allows easy access to the
inside of the chassis. Begin by removing power as described in the previous section.
Removing the Top Cover
1. Unscrew the thumbscrew located in the rear.
2. Lift the top cover up.
Check that all ventilation openings on the top cover and the top of the chassis are clear and
unobstructed.
Caution
: Except for short periods of time, do not operate the server without the cover in place.
The chassis cover must be in place to allow for proper airflow and to prevent overheating.
