Installing the Chassis in a Two-Post Rack
Use two persons to push the chassis onto the bottom-support rails. Push the lower half of the front side of the chassis
so that the back side enters the rack first, and push until the chassis is halfway onto the rack (see the following figure).
Ensure that the chassis does not get caught on any of the expansion edges of the bottom-support rail.

Push the sides of the lower half of the front side of
the chassis.
Tip
To adjust the placement of the chassis on the bottom-support rails, you can use the handles on the sides of
the chassis.
Step 5
If the mechanical lift is raised above the height of the bottom-support rails, gently lower it to the level of the rails or
no more than 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) below the rails.
This action helps to prevent the bottom of the chassis from getting caught on the bottom expansion edges of the
bottom-support rails.
Step 6
Push the chassis all the way onto the rack so that the vertical mounting brackets on the chassis come in contact with
the vertical mounting rails on the rack.
Step 7
Use seven M6 x 19 mm or 24 x 3/4-inch screws to attach each of the two vertical mounting brackets on the chassis to
the two vertical mounting rails on the rack (total of 14 screws). See Callout 2 in the following figure.

bracket touches the vertical mounting rails on the
rack.
