Step 3. Remove front panel face plate retaining screws

There are four PM slots (A, B, C and D) located on the front of the chassis cover. Looking into the vertical placed Chassis cover of the unit, there are three brackets with retaining screws (#256 flat head ) which hold each PM Face plate card slot securely. These six screws shown in the picture below are used to secure a PM face plate in position, but unscrew only four of the screws as shown in Fig. below. These screws are also used to secure the individual 6KPM cards screen plate which can be subjected to significant forces from the attached cables. (See Figure 3.5.1c)
