2.4.1 Removing the CPU Module
Failure to exercise proper electrostatic discharge precautions (such
as wearing a grounded wrist strap) may reset the processor or
damage electronic components, resulting in interrupted operations.
When working on units located in a hazardous area (where explosive
gases may be present), make sure the area is in a non-hazardous
state before performing procedures. Performing these procedures in
a hazardous area could result in personal injury or property damage.
To remove the CPU module:
1. Perform the backup procedure described in Preserving Configuration
and Log Data in Chapter 7, Troubleshooting.
2. Remove power from the FB107.
3. Remove all wiring from the CPU.
4. Place your fingers on the ridged edges on both sides of the CPU
module and pull gently (see Figure 2-8). The cover should slide
forward and stop, releasing the module lock.

5. Gently rock the module until it releases from the backplane and you
can remove it from the base unit.
