22 Sun Fire 280R Server Service Manual • January 2001
■ Open and remove the rack enclosure front door.
■ Slide each rack assembly’s inner slide back into its assembly until the slide comes
to a complete stop against the interior glide tab.
Caution – When completing a two-person procedure, always communicate your
intentions clearly before, during, and after each step to minimize confusion.
What to Do
1. Disconnect all external cables from the back panel.
Note each cable’s origin and its terminating connection.
2. Extend the cabinet’s anti-tip legs.
Caution – Unless the rack is bolted to the floor, you must extend the cabinet’s anti-
tip legs and adjust their stabilizing feet to the floor. Level and secure the cabinet to
provide a safe working environment. See “Tools Required for Installation and
Service” on page 14 for tools required for this procedure.
3. Extend the server from the rack, and then position one person on each side of the
system, facing the system glides.
When you are both in position, verify that your helper understands what to do with
the system after you release the server and remove it. Also agree on a route to follow,
and visually inspect it for potential safety hazards (for example, cables on the floor,
other people working in the vicinity, and so on).
