level as the left bracket. If the right and left front brackets are not on the same level,
the chassis will rest at an angle in the rack instead of resting flat and level. Line up the

appropriate for your rack to attach the right front bracket to the rack.
Position the other rear bracket at the right rear of the rack on the same level as the

Because of the router's size and weight, the PTX10016 can safely be installed only by
using a mechanical lift.
CAUTION:
Do not install line cards in the chassis until after you mount the
chassis securely on a rack or cabinet.
CAUTION:
Before front-mounting the router on a rack or cabinet, have a
qualified technician verify that the rack or cabinet is strong enough to support
the router's weight and is adequately supported at the installation site.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to install the router:
A mechanical lift rated for 1000 lbs. (453.6 kg)
12 mounting screws appropriate for your rack
A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2 or number 3, depending on the size of your
rack-mounting screws
CAUTION:
If you are installing more than one router in a rack or cabinet, install
the first router at the bottom of the rack.
