•  If expansion cabinet is installed, slide top and bottom cable support brackets up or down by two holes, and remove clock cables.
• Remove XBU from slot and place on antistatic conductive mat.
7. Grasp levers, align replacement crossbar unit with slot guide, and insert
   
   Note:  Do not use excessive force while inserting XBU's.
   Note:  Ensure cards are fully and properly seated  before applying power to the frame.
8. If expansion cabinet is installed, connect cables for connecting base cabinet to exp cabinet crossbar unit.
•  Hold cable connector covers and insert connectors perpendicular to front plate of XB unit until they come into contact with front plate.

  Caution !! If you are unable to obtain a torque screwdriver, finger tighten clock cable connectors only
  Caution !! Do not secure clock cables to cable folder along with data cables, and lay clock cables on data cables.

1. Return top and bottom cable support brackets to original positions in respective upper and lower holes.
   
   Note ! Visually check from opening in upper cover to ensure two PCBs do not come into contact with cable.
   Note: On M9000 with an expansion cabinet, expansion cabinet should be switched on first, then base cabinet.
