Because the router weighs between 57 lb (25.9 kg) and about 79 lb (35.8 kg), using a
mechanical lift to install it is recommended.
If you do not use a mechanical lift, installing the chassis safely requires two people to lift
and an additional person to insert the mounting screws.
This chapter has the following sections:

Using a mechanical lift to maneuver the router into the rack is recommended because
of the router's size and weight. The lift must be able to accommodate the router's
weight—between 57 lb (25.9 kg) and about 79 lb (35.8 kg) depending on
configuration—and must fit between the support posts of the rack.
NOTE: If you are installing multiple routers in one rack, install the lowest one
first and proceed upward in the rack.
