Removing the original tower bezel

You must remove the bezel that originally came with the tower configuration of the Altos G900 server platform and, later in the installation, replace it with the bezel from the rack conversion kit.

1Move the chassis so the door hangs over the edge of your workbench.

2Open the door.

3Ensure that the bezel lock is in the fully unlocked position. You cannot remove the bezel unless it is unlocked.

4Press on each of the eight plastic tabs (Figure 62, A) on the frame of the bezel until all the tabs are free of their slots and then lift the bezel off the chassis.

In the view shown below, there are three tabs on the left wall of the frame, two on the top, two on the right, and one on the bottom.

5Secure the keys for the tower bezel.

It is recommended that the keys be taped to the inside of the tower bezel for future use.
