WARNING! Do not attempt to install the 5U storage enclosure into the rack cabinet with drive modules preloaded in the
slots. Serious injury and damage could result. Unload any drive modules in storage enclosure slots to a static-protected area. Do
not further lighten the storage enclosure by removing other components.
Installation prerequisites and safety guidance
1. Clear the site for installation and secure a static-protected area, unpacking the storage enclosure in that area.
2. Move the storage enclosure onto a suitable mechanical lift with two (2U) or three people (5U, using included belt straps).
3. Use a mechanical lift for positioning the storage enclosure and mounting it into the rack cabinet. Do not use a vacuum lift. To
maintain personal and equipment safety, do not use any other method to support the weight of the storage enclosure.
