2. Remove the side access panel (see
Side access panel on page 58).
3. Remove the PCI card support bracket, if installed (see
PCI card support bracket on page 80).

6. Pull the PCI card up and out of the chassis (2). Store the card in an anti static bag.
CAUTION: To prevent possible heat damage to equipment if the workstation is powered up
before replacing or reinstalling a removed PCI card, install a blank PCI slot cover in its place to
maintain workstation chassis air flow integrity, then close the PCI retention clamp.
If the PCI retention clamp levers do not readily close, verify that all cards are properly seated, and
then try again. Remember to reinstall the workstation side access panel (see
Side access panel
on page 58).
