Extend the Server from the Rack
NOTE Ensure that there is enough area (Approximately 1.5 meters [4.5 ft.]) to fully extend the server
out the front and work on it.
To extend the server from the rack, perform the following steps:
Step 1. Remove the T-25 screws that fasten the server to the rack. See Figure 4-1, āAccessing 25 mm Torx
Screws.ā
Step 2. Flip out the two pull handles at either end of the front bezel and slowly pull the unit forward by the
handles. The server is fully extended when the rail clips are locked in place. When fully extended,
the front and top covers are fully accessible.
