Use this procedure to place the rack-mounted system into
the service position.
Notes: - When placing the system into the service position, it is essential
that all stability plates are firmly in position to prevent the rack
from toppling. Ensure that only one system unit is in the service
position at a time.
- Ensure that the cables at the rear of the system unit do not catch
or bind as you pull the unit forward in the rack.
- When the rails are fully extended, the rail safety latches lock
into place. This action prevents the system from being pulled out
too far.
- Open the front rack door.
- Identify the system unit you are servicing in the rack.
- Remove the two screws (A) (if present) that secure
the system unit (B) to the rack.
Note: Replacing
the shipping screws is optional but should be done in geographic areas
that are prone to seismic activity.

- While holding the system unit release latches (A) down
on both the left and right sides, pull the system unit (B) out
from the rack until the rails are fully extended and locked.
