Prerequisites
No prerequisites exist for this task.
Caution Do not lift cards by the slide-assistance arm. Rotate cards onto their vertical axes, then lift them from the bottom, using the slide-assistance arm only as an aid for balance.
Required Tools and Equipment
You need the following tools and part to perform this task:
•ESD-preventive wrist strap
•Small Phillips screwdriver.
Steps
To remove a slide-assistance arm, follow these steps:
Step 1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection sockets on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.
Step 2 Using the small Phillips screwdriver, turn the two captive screws (one top, one bottom) on the slide-assistance arm counter-clockwise to detach the arm from the card face.
Step 3 Set the slide-assistance arm carefully aside. We recommend storing it in the original Cisco packaging.
