• (For fixed drawers) This drawer is a fixed drawer and must not be moved for servicing unless specified
by the manufacturer. Attempting to move the drawer partially or out of the rack might cause the rack to
become unstable or cause the drawer to fall out of the rack. (R001 part 2 of 2)
Caution
Removing components from the upper positions in the rack cabinet improves rack stability during
relocation. Follow these general guidelines whenever you relocate a populated rack cabinet within a room
or building:
• Reduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing equipment, starting at the top of the rack cabinet.
When possible, restore the rack cabinet to the configuration of the rack cabinet as you received it. If this
configuration is not known, you must do the following:
– Remove all devices in the 32U position (compliance ID RACK-001) or 22U (compliance ID RR001)
and above.
– Ensure that the heaviest devices are installed in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
– Ensure that there are little-to-no empty U-levels between devices installed in the rack-cabinet below
the 32U (compliance ID RACK-001) or 22U (compliance ID RR001) level, unless the received
configuration specifically allowed it.
• If the rack cabinet you are relocating is part of a suite of rack cabinets, detach the rack cabinet from the
suite.
• If the rack cabinet you are relocating was supplied with removable outriggers, they must be reinstalled
before the cabinet is relocated.
• Inspect the route that you plan to take to eliminate potential hazards.
• Verify that the route that you choose can support the weight of the loaded rack cabinet. Refer to the
documentation that comes with your rack cabinet for the weight of a loaded rack cabinet.
• Verify that all door openings are at least 760 x 2032 mm (30 x 80 in.).
• Ensure that all devices, shelves, drawers, doors, and cables are secure.
• Ensure that the four leveling pads are raised to their highest position.
• Ensure that no stabilizer bracket is installed on the rack cabinet during movement.
• Do not use a ramp that is inclined at more than 10 degrees.
• When the rack cabinet is in the new location, complete these steps.
– Lower the four leveling pads.
– Install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet or in an earthquake environment bolt the rack to the
floor.
– If you removed any devices from the rack cabinet, repopulate the rack cabinet from the lowest
position to the highest position.
