Removing the System From the Rack

CAUTION: If you are removing more than one system from the rack cabinet,

remove the highest of the systems to be removed first. Complete the removal of

the first system from the rack before starting the second. Never extend more
than one system from the rack at a time.

CAUTION: Removing a system from a position high up in the rack cabinet will

require up to four people and may require a sturdy, elevated platform to stand

on. A mechanical lifting platform or similar equipment of the proper capacity

may also be useful. If you attempt to remove and lower the system without

enough people to safely perform the task, you risk personal injury to yourself
and to others and damage to the system.
