Chassis-Lifting Guidelines - Cisco 10008 Hardware Installation Manual

Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation
After you receive the Cisco 10008 router, we recommend that you have three people available to help
with the installation and ensure safe lifting.

Chassis-Lifting Guidelines

The fully configured system weighs approximately 130 pounds. The chassis is not intended to be moved
frequently. Before you install the system, ensure that your site is properly prepared so you can avoid
having to move the chassis later to accommodate power sources and network connections.
Two or more people are required to lift the chassis. Each time you lift the chassis or any heavy object,
follow these guidelines:
•

To safely lift the chassis, perform the following steps:
Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with
Warning
your legs, not your back. Statement 164
Figure 2-4
Each person should stand on either side of the chassis, and place one hand under the air intake at the
Step 1
bottom front of the chassis.
OL-0659-13
Never attempt to lift the chassis by yourself. Because of the size and weight of the chassis, use at
least two people to safely lift and move it without causing injury or damaging the equipment.
Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the chassis between your feet.
Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the
chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your back muscles.
Do not remove installed components from the chassis.
Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.
