Step 2 Slide the chassis into the rack, pushing it back until the brackets meet the mounting strips or posts on both sides of the
rack.
Step 3 Keeping the brackets flush against the posts or mounting strips, align the holes in the brackets with the holes on the rack
or mounting strip.
Step 4
For each bracket, insert and tighten two screws to the rack on both sides.
