Unpack and Verify Cisco NCS 1010

Use this task to unpack and check if all the chassis modules that are required for installation have been shipped.

Procedure


Step 1

When you receive Cisco NCS 1010 equipment at the installation site, open the top of the box.

Step 2

Remove the accessory kits and foam inserts in the box. The box contains Cisco NCS 1010 and other items that are needed for installation.

Step 3

To remove the chassis from the packaging, grasp the side of the chassis and lift it out of the box.

Use these lifting guidelines to avoid injury to yourself or damage to the equipment:

  • Do not lift equipment alone; have another person help you to lift the equipment.

    Figure 1. Lifting Cisco NCS 1010

    A fully loaded chassis can weigh as much as 19 kg (42 lb).

  • Ensure that your footing is solid; balance the weight of the object between your feet.

  • Lift the equipment slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.

  • Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. When bending down to lift equipment, bend at the knees (not at the waist), to reduce the strain on your lower back muscles.

Step 4

Verify the following:

  • Cisco NCS 1010 is not damaged. Check for a scratch, bend, discoloration, or deformation on the Cisco NCS 1010 chassis.

  • The modules that are shipped with the chassis or separately are not damaged.

Step 5

If there is any damage to the chassis or the modules, call your Cisco sales engineer for a replacement.
