Caution To prevent damage to the chassis and components, never attempt to lift the chassis by the plastic panels on the front of the chassis, or by the handles on power supplies or processor modules. These panels and handles were not designed to support the weight of the chassis.

H2336
In general, whenever you lift a Cisco 7500 series chassis, follow these guidelines:
•Whenever possible, avoid lifting the chassis alone.
•Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the object between your feet.
•Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
•Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your lower back muscles.
•Whenever possible, lift a chassis from the bottom; grasp the underside of the chassis exterior with both hands.
•Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.
•For the Cisco 7507, Cisco
