Installing the Rails on a Rack

Installing the Rails
1. Adjust the length of both rails as described on the previous page.
2. Align the front section of the outer rail with the slots on the front post of the
rack. Secure the front of the outer rail to the rack with two screws.
3. Pull out the rear section of the outer rail, adjusting the length until it fits within
the posts of the rack.
4. Align the rear section of the rail with the slots on the rear post of the rack.
Secure the rear of the outer rail to the rear of the rack with two screws.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for the remaining rail.
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the floor before you slide the unit out for servicing.
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
