Removing the Pedestal Top and Bottom

With the server still in the vertical position, look at the right side of the server (server bottom) to locate the lock release slot.

Insert a flat head screwdriver into the lock release slot on the pedestal top piece. This unlocks the pedestal top piece from the server. See Figure 4-4 for the pedestal top and bottom piece lock release locations.

Figure 4-4 Unlocking the Pedestal Top Piece from the Server

Slide the pedestal top piece toward the back of the server to release it from the server.

Once the pedestal component has moved about 1/4 inch, the lock releases, and you can remove the screwdriver.

Pull the pedestal kit top piece away from the server.

Lay the server flat on the server top (upside down) with the pedestal kit bottom piece hanging off the work surface. Figure 4-5 shows the server in the correct position to remove the pedestal kit bottom piece.

	NOTE: Since the pedestal kit bottom piece is taller than the server when installed, the pedestal kit bottom piece must hang off the work surface to allow its removal. If you cannot do this, then place something non-static under the server to raise it about 8 cm (3 in.) off of the work surface to allow the pedestal kit bottom piece removal.
