Step 1 Grasp the faceplate of the PIC with one hand and place your other hand under the PIC to support its weight.
Step 2 Carefully align the PIC with the plastic guides in the slot.
Step 3 Slide the PIC into the slot applying even pressure using both your hands until it is within an inch of full insertion.
Step 4 Open the ejector levers on the PIC and fully insert the PIC into the slot applying even pressure on both sides until it mates
with the midplane connectors.
