5.

Remove the PSU bay faceplate or existing PSU

To remove a blank faceplate:

Loosen the faceplate’s four Phillips mounting screws until they disengage
from the chassis, then remove the faceplate.

Keep the faceplate for future use. If you remove a PSU, replace the faceplate to prevent
dust and debris from entering the chassis and to maintain proper airflow.

The switch and PSU may overheat or be damaged by dust and debris if PSU
bays are left uncovered.

To remove an existing PSU:

Loosen the PSU’s four Phillips screws until they disengage from the chassis.

Using the PSU’s handle, pull the PSU out of the chassis.

6.

Insert the PSU

Slowly and carefully slide the PSU into the chassis (see Figure 2 on
page -6).

Firmly press the PSU home (until its front panel engages or nearly engages
the chassis).

Keep the PSU in a straight alignment and insert it slowly. Forcing a misaligned
PSU is likely to damage the chassis and PSU.
