ICON-XT Server - Installation and Maintenance Manual
General Safely Guidelines
Warning: Follow these rules to ensure general safety:
• Keep the area around the server clean and free of clutter.
• To avoid injuries to the back, be sure to use your leg muscles, keep your back
straight, and bend your knees, when lifting the system.
• After removing the components or chassis covers from the system, place them
on a table for safeguard.
• Avoid wearing loose clothing to prevent coming into contact with moving parts.
• Be sure to remove any jewelry or metal objects before working on the chassis
to avoid short circuits should these objects come into contact with power circuits.
• After accessing the interior of the chassis, be sure to close the chassis with
chassis covers and secure the chassis to the racks with screws.
ESD Safety Guidelines
Warning: Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To
prevent damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very
carefully. The following measures are generally sufficient to protect your
equipment from ESD.
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their antistatic bags
until ready for use.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic
bag.
• Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which
may retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist strap.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag.
• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral
chips, memory modules or contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not
in use.
• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the motherboard.
Operation Safety Guidelines
Warning: For proper cooling, make sure to install all chassis covers before turning
on the system. If this rule is not strictly followed, warranty may become
void. Do not open the casing of a power supply. Power supplies can only
be accessed and serviced by a qualified technician of the manufacturer.
