Attaching the rack to a concrete floor

If you plan to install the front or back ac electrical outlets in the rack, the rack must be bolted to the floor.
This section describes how to perform this task for a concrete floor.
Obtain the services of a mechanical contractor to attach the rack-mounting plates to the concrete floor.
The mechanical contractor must determine that the hardware being used to secure the rack-mounting
plates to the concrete floor is sufficient to meet the requirements for the installation.
To attach the rack to a concrete floor, do the following:
1. Put the rack in its predetermined location, and tighten the locking screws on the casters.
2. If they are installed, remove the top, left, and right trim panels. The trim panels are held in place
with spring clips. See the following illustration.
