Safety and Tools Requirements 5-5

• When removing a board, card, or module from an antistatic bag, lay it on an
antistatic surface such as a Sun ESD mat, an antistatic bag, or a disposable
antistatic mat.
• Do not place the boards, cards, or modules on an unprotected surface. Use a
cushioned antistatic mat or antistatic bag. Connectors and components have
very thin pins that bend easily.
• Do not use an oscilloscope or VOM (volt-ohmmeter) probe on the
components. The soldered pins are easily damaged or shorted by the
probe point.
• Transport boards, cards, or modules in an antistatic bag.
• Always wear an antistatic wrist strap connected to a metal surface on the
chassis when working on system components and parts.
