WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage when unloading a rack:
• At least two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U rack can
weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft) tall, and might become unstable
when being moved on its casters.
• Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet. Always handle the
rack from both sides.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, adequately stabilize the
rack before extending a component outside the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A rack may
become unstable if more than one component is extended.
WARNING: When installing a server in a telco rack, be sure that the rack frame is adequately secured
at the top and bottom to the building structure.
