6B. 2-Post Rack Installation
Unpack the appliance and locate the mounting hardware
Step 1
Locate the two long and six short rack brackets that came in your
ship kit.
A.
Securely attach the set of short brackets with the threaded
screw holes to the long bracket in the front as shown.
Use two M4 truss head screws for each bracket.
B.
Loosely attach one set of the other short brackets to the
long fixed bracket as shown using one M4 truss head screw
on each bracket. The three holes on the flap will face toward
the back for later attachment to the 2-post rack.
C.
Loosely attach the remaining set of short brackets to the
long fixed bracket as shown using one M4 truss head screw
on each bracket. The three holes on the flap will face toward
the front for later attachment to the 2-post rack.
Step 2
Attach the assembled brackets to the 2-post rack.
A.
Insert two M5 x 12 flat head screws through the short
brackets into the 2-post rack (in the front and back of the
rack as shown) and tighten. Make sure the brackets are
aligned and level in height, not only in the front and back
but also on the left and right sides.
B.
Tighten each of the the single screws on the small fixed
brackets (located on either side of the rack) to secure the
brackets in the rack and ensure appliance stability.

Refer to your rack's mounting hardware for the proper size
and type of screws to secure the appliance in the rack.
