Juniper Networks EX8208 Switch User Manual


 
CAUTION: The chassis with only the backplane and no other components weighs
approximately 89 lb (41 kg). Lifting the chassis and removing it from a rack or cabinet
requires at least three people.
The chassis has two handles. Do not lift a fully loaded chassis by the handles; make
sure the chassis is empty before you lift it. If two of the people lifting the chassis use
the handles to lift it, the third person must lift from the rearof the chassis. The rearof
the chassis is heavierthan the front of the chassis, so when you lift the chassis by the
handles, the chassis tips toward the heavierback end. The personlifting fromthe back
mustbe awareof this behaviorand must be bracedto preventthe chassis fromtipping
over.
When lifting the chassis, do not grasp the switch by the blue panel at the top front of
the chassis. Doing so can cause the panel to pop off of the switch.
CAUTION: Whenremovingmorethan oneswitchfroma rack,remove theswitchatthe
top first. We strongly recommend removing a switch that is in an upper position in a
rackor cabinet with a lift.
Before you remove the switch:
Ensure that the rack or cabinet is stable and secured to the building.
Ensure thatthere is enough space to place the removed switch in its new location and
along the path to the new location.
