Safety Requirements
Warning
Never attempt to lift the chassis with the handles on the power supplies, fan trays, or the switching
modules. These handles are not designed to support the weight of the chassis. Using them to lift or
support the chassis can result in severe damage to the equipment and serious bodily injury.
Statement 278

Warning
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC
circuits. To ensure that all power is removed, locate the circuit breakers or fuses on the DC power
lines that service the DC circuits. Turn OFF the DC power line circuit breakers and remove the DC
power line fuses.
Statement 322
Warning
Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module or a fan. Exposed
circuitry could constitute an energy hazard.
Statement 206
Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029
Warning
This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during
normal use.
Statement 39
Warning
For personal safety, the ground wire must connect to safety (earth) ground at both the equipment and
supply side of the DC wiring (unless the local electrical code requirements are different).
