Installing a Supervisor Engine
Step 9 Depending on the orientation of the slots in the chassis (horizontal or vertical), perform one of the
following two sets of steps:
Chassis with horizontal slots
a. Position the new supervisor engine in the slot. Make sure that you align the sides of the supervisor
engine carrier with the slot guides on each side of the chassis slot. (See
Figure 3-1.)
b. Carefully slide the supervisor engine into the slot until the EMI gasket along the top edge of the
supervisor engine makes contact with the module or cover plate in the slot above it and the
supervisor engine ejector levers have both closed to approximately 45 degrees with respect to the
supervisor engine faceplate.
