Installing the System into a Rack

Use the procedure below for installing the system to a rack.
1. Decide where you want to place the system into the rack (see "Rack Mount-
ing Considerations" in the previous section).
2. Position the template at the front of the system to determine the locations of
the screws for the chassis rails (see Figure 2-1).
3. The two rail sections are screwed together to keep them immobile during
shipping. Release these screws just enough to allow the rails to slide apart.
Note the arrow on the rail, which indicates the end that attaches to the front
of the rack.
4. Slide the rails apart far enough to match the depth of the rack. Position the
rails with the template and secure the front of each to the front of the rack
with two fl athead screws, then secure the back of each rail to the rear of the
rack with two fl athead screws (see Figure 2-2). Note that the rails are left/right
specifi c and very heavy.
5. (Optional step) Add the front left and right handles to the chassis using
screws to secure each handle. Install a thumbscrew through the bottom hole
of each handle.
