Removing the Server from a Rack Attention Four people are required to move or lift the server. To remove the server from a rack: 1. If you have a modem or fax machine attached to the server, disconnect the telephone line from the electrical outlet and the server. Note If you are in the United Kingdom, you must perform this step before disconnecting the power cord. 2. Disconnect all cables and power cords from the rear of the server. 3. Disconnect all power cords from the rack. 4. Remove the screws from the bezel brackets on each side of the front bezel. Set them aside for later use. 5. Slide the server about halfway out of the rack. 6. Loosen the captive screws that secure the cable-management arm. 7. Fully extend the slide-bracket assemblies until they lock. 8. Remove the screws that attach the server to each slide-bracket assembly. 9. Remove the side access doors from the server by loosening the captive screws. 10. Using the four handles on the side of the server, lift the server from the slide bracket assemblies and place the server on a flat, nonconductive surface. 11. Install the side access doors on the server. Attention For proper cooling and airflow, replace the side access doors before powering on the server. Operating the server with the side access doors removed might damage server components. Disassembling the Drawer Hardware: If you are not going to reinstall the server or install another drawer model, remove the brackets from the server and the rack. 1. Remove and save the slide-bracket assemblies and screws for future use. 2. Remove the screws that attach the left slide rail to the front and rear mounting rails. 3. Remove the screws that attach the right slide rail to the front mounting brackets. 4. Remove the screws that attach the slide rail and cable-management arm to the rear of the rack.
