Removing and replacing the cover of a node canister

To complete a service procedure, you may need to remove and replace the cover of a node canister.

About this task

  • No tools are required to complete this task. Do not remove or loosen any screws.
  • The cover of a node canister can be removed only after the canister is removed from the control enclosure.

Procedure

  1. Remove the node canister from the control enclosure, as described in Reseating a node canister in the control enclosure.

Removing the cover

  1. Place the node canister on a flat, level work surface. The release levers should be facing you and the cover should be facing upwards.
    Note: The node canister in the upper slot (node canister 1) of the control enclosure is upside-down. To access the cover, you must turn it over after you have removed it from the control enclosure.
  2. Open the cover of the node canister by depressing the recessed, blue touch points on the lid ( 1 ) and sliding the lid away from you ( 2 ), as shown in Figure 1.
