Because of the router's size and weight—up to 128 lb (58.1 kg) depending on the
configuration—we strongly recommend that you install the router using a mechanical
lift. To make the router light enough to install with a lift, you must first remove most
components from the chassis.
CAUTION: Before front mounting the router in a rack, have a qualified
technician verify that the rack is strong enough to support the router's weight
and is adequately supported at the installation site.
To install the router using a lift (see
Ensure that the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure
1.
that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance.
Load the router onto the lift, making sure it rests securely on the lift platform.
2.
Using the lift, position the router in front of the rack or cabinet, centering it in front of
