Caution!
The chassis cover protects the internal components. When you
remove the cover, damage from electrostatic discharge is possible.
For more information, see Protecting
against ESD damage.

To remove the cover:
- Shut down the server and remove the AC
power cords.
- For a stackable (desktop) configuration, remove any units
stacked on top of the server you must access.
- Remove the bezel (plastic cover) on the front of the chassis.
See figure Removing or replacing the front
bezel.
- Press down on the two tabs on the top of the bezel.
- Tilt the bezel forward, and then lift it out.
- Loosen the screw latch for the top cover located on the back
of the chassis. See figure Removing or replacing
the cover.
- For a rack-mount setup, slide the server forward.
Note: You might need to unplug some cables at
the back of the server to get sufficient cable slack.
Label all cables so you can easily reconnect them. See
figure:
- Slide the top cover towards the front of the server to release
it, and then lift the cover off the chassis.
- The internal components are now accessible. See figure:

Caution!
For some procedures, you might need to remove the server from
the rails. Ensure that you have a clear work area before you
remove the server. For safety considerations, get another
person to assist you with lifting the server.
