5.Place one hand around the faceplate of the line card and the other hand under the line card to support it.

CAUTION: The line cards in EX8200 switches weigh more than 10 lb (4.5 kg). Be prepared to support the full weight as you slide the line card into the chassis.

Before you slide the line card into the slot on the switch chassis, ensure the line card is aligned correctly. Misalignment might cause the pins to bend, making the line card unusable.

6.Lift the line card, and position it in the chassis with the faceplate facing you and the sides of the line card aligned with the guides in the line card slot on the switch chassis.

7.Make sure the levers stay in the open position (see Figure 59 on page 162) and gently slide the line card fully into the slot using both hands.

NOTE: You might need to lift the line card slightly to seat it correctly in the slot.

8.Grasp the ejector levers on the line card and push them inward simultaneously until the line card is fully seated (see Figure 60 on page 162 and Figure 61 on page 163).
