3.1.3 Precautions

Components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by

discharges of static electricity. Working on a system that is

connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous.

Follow the guidelines below to avoid damage to the Tank GT20

or injury to yourself.

z Ground yourself properly before removing the top cover of

the system. Unplug the power from the power supply and

then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge

(i.e. power supply case). If available, wear a grounded wrist

strap. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by

touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare

metal body of any other grounded appliance.

z Avoid touching motherboard components, IC chips,

connectors, memory modules, and leads.

z The motherboard is pre-installed in the system. When

removing the motherboard, always place it on a grounded

anti-static surface until you are ready to reinstall it.

z Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not

touch the components on the board unless it is necessary to

do so. Do not flex or stress circuit boards.

z Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that

they ship with until they are ready for installation.

z After replacing optional devices, make sure all screws,

springs, or other small parts are in place and are not left

loose inside the case. Metallic parts or metal flakes can

cause electrical shorts.

Notes:

z All connectors are keyed to only attach one way.

z Always use the correct screw size as indicated in the

procedures.
