Precautions For Products With External Television Antenna Connectors - HP Compaq Presario,Presario 6330 Supplementary Manual

Rack-Mountable Products
Because the rack allows you to stack
computer components vertically, you must
take precautions to provide for rack
stability and safety:
Do not move large racks by yourself.
Due to the height and weight of the
rack, Compaq recommends a minimum
of two people to accomplish this task.
Before working on the rack, be sure the
leveling jacks (feet) extend to the floor
and that the full weight of the rack rests
on the floor. Also install stabilizing feet
on a single rack or join multiple racks
together before starting work.
Always load the rack from the bottom
up, and load the heaviest item in the
rack first. This makes the rack bottom-
heavy and helps prevent the rack from
becoming unstable.
Ensure that the rack is level and stable
before extending a component from the
rack.
Extend only one component at a time.
The rack may become unstable if more
than one component is extended.
Use caution when pressing the compo-
nent rail release latches and sliding a
component into the rack. The slide rails
could pinch your fingers.
Do not overload the AC supply branch
circuit that provides power to the rack.
The total rack load should not exceed
80% of the branch circuit rating.
