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
system and unplug all peripheral devices and the AC power cable or disconnect the DC
mains. None of the components inside the platform are hot-swappable.
To mitigate damage to equipment from static electricity discharge an antistatic wriststrap
connected to earth ground must be worn be service personnel.
NOTE
A nonskid surface or a stop behind the platform may be needed to
prevent the platform from sliding on your work surface.
