Removing the Riser and Add-in Card(s)
Perform this procedure to remove the riser and add-in card(s) from the server board. Refer to
Figure 21 while performing this procedure.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to remove an add-in card without first removing the riser card
from the server board. If you do, you can damage the board(s) or connectors
due to clearance limitations. If there are any add-in cards already installed,
remove the riser and the attached add-in card(s) together as described in the
following procedure.
1. Grasp the riser card, with add-in card(s) attached, at each end (A) and gently rock and lift until
the riser releases from the server board connector (B).
2. Remove the riser and add-in cards from the server board.
