Chassis weight	Description
40–70 pounds	Recommend two people to lift
70–120 pounds	Recommend three people to lift
≥ 121 pounds	Recommend to use a server-lift

WARNING:The system is heavy, so ensure adequate support and balance during movement and installation; a lift is required for loads over 120 pounds, as the system can slide and cause damage when being installed or removed from a higher position on the rack.

CAUTION: Lift the system by using the provided lifting handles on the chassis and refrain from using clips or other chassis points to lift the system. Nondesignated lift-points on the chassis may cause system damage due to the inability to support the system weight while lifting.
