Step 6 Pivot both card ejector levers so that the openings on the card ejector cams at the top and bottom of the card pass over the tabs on each side of the card cage slot.

Caution Verify that the openings on the card ejector cams pass over the tabs; otherwise, one or both ejector levers may bind when you attempt to close the ejector levers, thereby damaging or breaking one or both ejector levers.

Step 7 Continue sliding the card into the card cage slot until the openings on the card ejector cams engage the tabs on each side of the card cage slot.

Note Guide pins exist that make initial contact with the backplane connector as you slide a card into its slot. After the guide pins make contact, continue pushing on the card carrier until the card ejector levers begin pivoting forward, toward the handle in the card carrier.
