Removing the compute node cover

Use this information to remove the cover from a compute node.

Before you remove the compute node cover, complete the following steps:

1. Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
2. If the compute node is installed in an Lenovo NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure, remove it (see Removing a compute node from a chassis for instructions).
3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward you.

Statement 12

CAUTION

The following label indicates a hot surface nearby.

Statement 21

CAUTION

Hazardous energy is present when the compute node is connected to the power source. Always replace the compute node cover before installing the compute node.

To remove the compute node cover, complete the following steps:

1. Press on the release latch and the push point at the same time and slide the cover toward the rear of the compute node.
2. Lift the cover away from the compute node.

   Attention

   Do not use any tools or sharp objects to press on the release latch. Doing so might result in permanent damage to the release latch.
3. Lay the cover flat or store it for future use.
