To remove the expansion-card cage from the chassis, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the computer cover .
NOTICE: Use a wrist grounding strap as explained in " Precautionary Measures ."
2. Examine the cables connected to expansion cards through the back-panel openings, and disconnect
any cables that will not reach to where the cage must be placed when it is removed from the chassis.
3. Locate the securing lever and rotate the lever upward until it stops in an upright position.
4. Lift the expansion-card cage up and out of the chassis.
To replace the expansion-card cage into the chassis, perform the following steps:
1. With the securing lever in the upright position, align the tabs in the side of the expansion-card cage
with the mating hooks on the left side of the chassis wall (see Figure 19). Slide the expansion-card
cage into place.
2. Rotate the securing lever downward until it is flush with the top side of the chassis. Make sure that the
riser board is fully seated in the RISER connector on the system board.
3. Reconnect any cables you removed in step 2 of the previous procedure.
