Precautions Against Static Electricity
Before removing electronic components from their antistatic bags read the following static electricity precautions.
1. Before handling any components, discharge your body's static electric charge by touching a grounded
surface.
2. Do not remove parts from their antistatic bags until you are ready to install them.
3. Do not lay parts on the antistatic bags! Only the insides are antistatic.
4. When handling parts, hold them by their edges and their metal mounting brackets.
5. Avoid touching components or edge connectors that plug into slots and wear the antistatic wrist strap (Part
No. 576010-908) included in your component replacement kit.
6. Never slide parts over any surface.
7. Avoid plastic, vinyl, and styrofoam in your work area.
