HP ProLiant DL580 G3 Server - Manual (Page 53)

Server setup 53
• At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from
the pallet. An empty 42U rack can weigh as much as 115 kg
(253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and may become
unstable when being moved on its casters.
• Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp
from the pallet. Always handle the rack from both sides.
WARNING: When installing a server in a telco rack, be sure
that the rack frame is adequately secured to the top and bottom of
the building structure.
WARNING: This server is very heavy. To reduce the risk of
personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and
guidelines for manual material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or
removal, especially when the product is not fastened to the
rails. When the server weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb), at least
two people must lift the server into the rack together. A third
person may be required to help align the server if the server is
installed higher than chest level.
• Use caution when installing the server in or removing the
server from the rack; it is unstable when not fastened to the
rails.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot
surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components to
cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric
shock, or damage to the equipment, remove the power cord to
remove power from the server. The front panel Power On/Standby
button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the
power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC
power is removed.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and
temporary interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply
(UPS). This device protects the hardware from damage caused by
power surges and voltage spikes and keeps the system in operation
during a power failure.
