The Intel® Server Chassis SC5400 must be operated with the top cover in place to ensure proper cooling. You will need to remove the top cover to add or replace components inside of the platform. Before removing the top cover, power down the server and unplug all peripheral devices and the AC power cable.

Note: A non-skid surface or a stop behind the chassis may be needed to prevent the chassis from sliding on your work surface.
