- Page 13 Hardware installation Turn both extraction levers to their fully-closed positions. The extraction levers should hook into the sides of the chassis slot. Closing the extraction levers draws the FortiSwitch-5003 module into place in the chassis slot and into contact with the chassis backplane. The FortiSwitch-5003 front panel should be in contact with the chassis front panel.
