Removing the Router from the Equipment Rack
This section describes how to remove a fully-loaded router from the equipment
rack using the scissor-jack platform. If you elected to empty the chassis before
attempting to remove it from the equipment rack, remove the chassis as described
in the “Removing and Installing a Chassis” section on page 5-53.
To remove a fully-loaded router from the equipment rack using the scissor-jack
platform, follow these steps:
Step 1 Working from the top of the chassis down, remove the screws that secure the
chassis to the mounting flanges on the rack (five screws on each side of the
chassis).
Step 2 Position the scissor-jack platform in front of the rack-mounting platform installed
in the bottom of the rack, with the screw on the scissor-jack platform facing away
from the front of the router and the back of the scissor-jack platform butted
against the front of the rack-mounting platform.
Step 3 Use the 3/4-in (19-mm) socket and ratchet wrench to turn the scissor-jack screw
counterclockwise and expand the scissor-jack platform so that the top of the
platform is level with the top of the rack-mounting table under the chassis.
