Step 4 Slide the CSF half-way out of the slot, then stop.
Step 5 Touching only the metal card carrier, use your free hand to support the bottom of
the CSF and slide the card completely out of the chassis.
• Always place the CSF directly into an antistatic bag or other ESD-preventive
container.
• If you plan to return the defective CSF to the factory, repackage it in the
shipping container you received with the replacement card.
Step 6 Set both edges of the CSF carrier into the card slot carrier alignment grooves on
either side of the CSF slot and slide the card halfway into the chassis.
Step 7 Pivot the ejector levers outward away from the faceplate.
Step 8 Slide the card into the CSF slot until the ejector levers make contact with the front
of the card cage, then stop.
Step 9 Pivot the ejector levers toward the faceplate until the connector properly seats in
the backplane.
Step 10 Tighten the two captive screws.
Caution Do not overtighten the captive screws; over tightening can strip the
threads on the screw or in the insert in the CSF faceplate.
Step 11 Power on the router.
If the router does not power on correctly, see the “Troubleshooting the Line
Cards” section on page 4-19.
