Step 6. Attach the mounting plates

Note: You attach the front and rear mounting plates through the same mounting holes that you use to
mount the stabilizers. Therefore, you must bolt down the rack rather than use the stabilizers. Install the
mounting plates only if you bolted the rack to the floor.
The mounting plates are part of the Earthquake Mounting Kit, feature code 6080.
Align the holes on the mounting plate with the holes on the front of the rack. Use the Allen wrench that
is supplied with the rack to install the mounting plate screws (stabilizer mounting screws). Repeat this
procedure for the mounting plate on the rear of the rack. See Figure 90.
