Attention

Three trained technicians are required to complete the enclosure installation/removal task.

Two technicians must hold the front and rear handles at both sides of the enclosure.
One technician must protect the cables from damage.

Carefully put the enclosure into the rack and slide the enclosure until rear handles are near front rack rails; then, remove rear handles at both sides.
