Rack-to-Tower Conversion Guide 1-1

This conversion guide provides instructions for trained service technicians in removing a

system from a rack cabinet and converting the system to a tower version. One rack-to-tower

conversion kit is required for each system to be converted from a rack version system to a

tower version system.

CAUTION: The system is very heavy. To prevent personal injury, do not attempt

to move the system by yourself.

Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect

your server, storage system, or appliance from potential damage. For complete safety and

regulatory information, refer to your System Information document. Warranty information

may or may not be included in this document.

Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products

Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to the rack

installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific warning

and/or caution statements and procedures.

Servers, storage systems, and appliances are considered to be components in a rack. Thus,

“component” refers to any server, storage system, or appliance, as well as to various

peripherals or supporting hardware.

CAUTION: Installing system components in a rack without the front and side

stabilizers installed could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in

bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore, always install the

stabilizers before installing components in the rack.

CAUTION: After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more than

one component out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of

more than one extended component could cause the rack to tip over and injure

someone.

NOTE: Your system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a component for

use in a rack cabinet using the customer rack kit when both the rack cabinet and rack

kit were designed for your system. The installation of your system and rack kit in any

other rack cabinet has not been approved by any safety agencies. It is your

responsibility to have the final combination of system and rack kit in a rack cabinet

evaluated for suitability by a certified safety agency. The manufacturer disclaims all

warranties and liability in connection with such combinations.

• System rack kits are intended to be installed in a rack by trained service technicians. If

you install the kit in any other rack, be sure that the rack meets the specifications.

1-2 Rack-to-Tower Conversion Guide

• Do not move large racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight of the rack, it is

recommended that a minimum of two people to perform this task.

• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack,

extend to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front

and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before

working on the rack.

• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.

• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the

rack.

• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component

into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.

• After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking

position, and then slide the component into the rack.

• Do not overload the power supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack.

The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.

• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.

• Do not step on or stand on any system/component when servicing other

systems/components in a rack.
