Never leave tools inside the chassis.

 

 

Lifting Precautions

WARNING: Make sure the rack or cabinet housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable or falling over.

WARNING: Do not use the handles on the power supply units to lift or carry a Foundry device.

WARNING: Mount the devices you install in a rack or cabinet as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.
