· Lift equipment using both hands and with your knees bent.
Equipment Racks
To avoid injury or damage to the equipment:
· Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual materials handling.
· Do not attempt to move a rack by yourself; a minimum of two people are needed to move a rack.
· Do not attempt to move a fully loaded rack. Remove equipment from the rack before moving it.
· Do not attempt to move a rack on an incline that is greater than 10 degrees from the horizontal.
· Make sure the rack is properly secured to the floor or ceiling.
· Make sure the stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack
installation.
· Make sure racks are coupled together if it is a multiple-rack installation.
· Make sure the rack is level and stable before installing an appliance in the
rack.
· Make sure the leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
Page 10

· Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
· In all European electrical environments, you must ground the Green/Yellow tab on the power cord. If you do not ground the Green/Yellow tab, it can cause an electrical shock due to high leakage currents.
·
Do not place objects on AC power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no
Page 11
10
one might accidentally step on or trip over them.
· Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord by the plug.
· To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect all power cords before servicing the appliance.
Equipment Batteries
· The system battery contains lithium manganese dioxide. If the battery pack is not handled properly, there is risk of fire and burns.

Chapter 2: Setting Up
2.0.1 Before you Begin
This chapter explains how to install the CPUs, CPU heatsinks, memory modules, and hard drives. Instructions on inserting add on cards are also given.
2.0.2 Work Area
Make sure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can get into components and cause malfunctions. Use containers to keep small components separated. Putting all small components in separate containers prevents them from becoming lost. Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally damaging the internal components.
2.0.3 Tools
The following procedures require only a few tools, including the following:
A cross head (Phillips) screwdriver
A grounding strap or an anti-static pad
Most of the electrical and mechanical connections can be disconnected with your hands. It is recommended that you do not use pliers to remove connectors as it may damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the connectors.
Caution!
1. To avoid damaging the motherboard and associated
components, do not use torque force greater than
7kgf/cm (6.09 lb/in) on each mounting screw for
motherboard installation.
2. Do not apply power to the board if it has been
damaged.
Page 37
36
2.0.4 Precautions
Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static electricity. Working on a system that is connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow the guidelines below to avoid damage to GN70-B8236-IL or injury to yourself.
Ground yourself properly before removing the top cover of the
system. Unplug the power from the power supply and then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). If available, wear a grounded wrist strap. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare metal body of any other grounded appliance.
Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,
memory modules, and leads.
The motherboard is pre-installed in the system. When removing
the motherboard, always place it on a grounded anti-static surface until you are ready to reinstall it.
Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the
components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress circuit boards.
Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they
ship with until they are ready for installation.
After replacing optional devices, make sure all screws, springs, or
other small parts are in place and are not left loose inside the case. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.
CAUTION: Please note that the following illustrations may not look
exactly like the rackmount server you purchased. Therefore, the illustrations should be held for your reference only.

Appendix III: Fan and Temp Sensors
This section aims to help readers identify the locations of some specific FAN and Temp Sensors on the motherboard. A table of BIOS Temp sensor name explanation is also included for readers’ reference.
NOTE: The red dot indicates the sensor.
Fan and Temp Sensor Location:
1. Fan Sensor: It is located in the third pin of the fan connector, which detects the fan
speed (rpm).
2. Temp Sensor: CPU0 MOS Area, System Inlet and Ambient. They detect the system
temperature around.
NOTE: The CPU temp is measured on a scale defined by AMD, not in Fahrenheit or Celsius.

Appendix IV: Technical Support
If a problem arises with your system, you should first turn to your dealer for direct support. Your system has most likely been configured or designed by them and they should have the best idea of what hardware and software your system contains. Hence, they should be of the most assistance for you. Furthermore, if you purchased your system from a dealer near you, take the system to them directly to have it serviced instead of attempting to do so yourself (which can have expensive consequence).
