CompTIA Server+ SK0-005 Practice Question
While re-cabling a server row, a technician and a coworker must move a 70 lb (32 kg) 2U UPS from its shipping pallet onto the rails in the bottom 4U of a 42U cabinet. According to recommended proper lifting techniques, which action should they take to minimize the risk of musculoskeletal injury?
Keep your knees locked, bend at the waist, and straighten your back quickly to raise the UPS before sliding it into the rack.
Stand an arm's length from the cabinet, grasp the UPS handles, and swing the unit sideways to align it with the rails in one motion.
Hoist the UPS above shoulder level first so it clears the rack posts, then lower it into place.
Squat by bending your knees and hips, keep your back straight, hold the UPS close to your torso, and lift smoothly with your legs while the coworker stabilizes the chassis.
