If you must turn on the server while the server cover is removed, make sure that no one is near the server and that no tools or other objects have been left inside the server.

Do not attempt to lift an object that you think is too heavy for you. If you have to lift a heavy object, observe the following precautions:

Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping.

Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.

Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you lift a heavy object.
