used in the original box that the new part arrived in. ESD-sensitive devices should be removed from packaging only at an
ESD-protected work surface, and parts should never be placed on top of the ESD bag because only the inside of the bag is
shielded. Always place parts in your hand, on the ESD mat, in the system, or inside an anti-static bag.

Transporting Sensitive Components – When transporting ESD sensitive components such as replacement parts or parts to
be returned to Dell, it is critical to place these parts in anti-static bags for safe transport.
ESD protection summary
It is recommended that all field service technicians use the traditional wired ESD grounding wrist strap and protective anti-
static mat at all times when servicing Dell products. In addition, it is critical that technicians keep sensitive parts separate from
all insulator parts while performing service and that they use anti-static bags for transporting sensitive components.

Lifting equipment
Adhere to the following guidelines when lifting heavy weight equipment:
CAUTION: Do not lift greater than 50 pounds. Always obtain additional resources or use a mechanical lifting device.
1
Get a firm balanced footing. Keep your feet apart for a stable base, and point your toes out.
2
Tighten stomach muscles. Abdominal muscles support your spine when you lift, offsetting the force of the load.
3
Lift with your legs, not your back.
4
Keep the load close. The closer it is to your spine, the less force it exerts on your back.
5
Keep your back upright, whether lifting or setting down the load. Do not add the weight of your body to the load. Avoid
twisting your body and back.
6
Follow the same techniques in reverse to set the load down.
