Installing the front handles

Use this information to install the front handle.

Before you install the front handles, complete the following steps:
  1. Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
  2. If the compute node is installed in a Flex System chassis, remove it (see Removing a compute node from a chassis for instructions).
  3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface with the cover side down, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward you.

To install the front handles, complete the following steps.
Graphic illustrating the removal of the front handle

  1. Orient the front handles so that the blue release latches are toward the middle of the compute node.
  2. Align the hole in the handles with the holes on the compute node where the handles are installed.
  3. Using a T8 Torx screwdriver, install the screw that secures each handle. Use the screws that you removed when you removed the handles.
After you install the front handles, install the compute node into the chassis (see Installing a compute node in a chassis for instructions).
