Use the following procedure to mark screw hole locations for the rack
mounting bracket assemblies and fastener positions for the cage nuts:
1. Identify the front side of the template.
IMPORTANT: The template is two-sided (front and back) and printed with arrows that
show you where the screws are inserted, both for the mounting bracket assemblies and
for the thumb screws that secure the server's faceplate to the front of the rack.
Align the template carefully with the holes on the rack to determine the exact placement
of the screws.
2. Starting at the bottom of the rack or at the top of a previously mounted
component, measure the screw hole locations for the rack mounting
bracket assemblies. Pencil-mark the locations on the outside of the rack.
Do this on both the front and the back.
Be sure to follow the template alignment instructions, and keep the sides
squared up with the sides of the rack. Measured markings on the rack's
vertical rails will help you maintain the proper alignment.

3. When you mark the position of the mounting bracket screws, also mark
the position on the front of the rack for the cage nuts. These are the two
slots marked "C" on the template. The cage nuts will hold the
thumbscrews through the server's faceplate.
4. After marking the front of the rack, move to the rear of the rack. Flip the
template over and repeat Step 2 and Step 3 to mark the back rails. Open
the rear door to access them.
5. On the back, also mark the rail to show the top of the template. This will
help you align the template for the next component.
