WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:

The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.

The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.

The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.

Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one

component is extended for any reason.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage when unloading a

rack:

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.
