Completing a parts inventory

Before beginning the rack installation it is a good idea to do a parts inventory. This section guides you in
performing this task.
If you have not done so, complete a parts inventory before installing the unit in the rack:
1. Locate the kitting report in an accessory box.
2. Ensure that you received all of the features that you ordered and all of the parts on the kitting report.

Positioning the rack

Proper rack positioning is needed to comply with safety and regulatory requirements. Use the procedure
in this section to perform this task.
After the rack has been placed into its location on the floor, lock each caster by tightening the locking
