Before installing the cover, check that all cables, adapters, and other components are installed and seated correctly and that you have not left loose tools or parts inside the server. 2. Place the bottom lip of the side cover over the bottom edge of the server chassis. 3. Rotate the side cover to a vertical position, inserting the tabs at the top of the side cover into the matching slots in the server chassis. 4. Slide the side cover forward until it locks in place. Press down on the cover-release-latch button as you close the cover-release latch to lock the side cover. Cover-release latch Key lock 5.
