9. 9. Mark the raised-floor panel around the edges of the front and rear rack-mounting plates.
10. Mark the plate bolt-down holes.
11. Remove the rack-mounting bolt assemblies.
12. Remove the mounting plates from the marked locations.
13. Move the rack so that it is clear of both areas that were marked on the floor for the mounting plate
locations
14. Reposition the mounting plates within the marked areas.
15. Mark the floor at the center of all holes in both mounting plates, including the threaded holes.
16. Remove the two rack-mounting plates from the marked areas.
17. At the marked location of the threaded rack-mounting bolt holes, drill four clearance holes into and
through the raised floor. This allows the rack-mounting bolts enough room to protrude past the
thickness of the rack-mounting plates.
Note: The quantity, location, size and type of concrete anchors must be determined by the
Professional Engineer or the mechanical contractor performing the rack-mounting plate installation.
Note: If the hole locations at the rear of the rack are not accessible, riggers will be required to install
the mounting hardware in the non-accessible hole locations. You must lift the rack to install the
hardware.
18. Drill pass-through holes at the selected hole locations (A) into the raised floor panels. The pass-
through holes allow the mounting hardware to be inserted into the rack-mounting plate and pass
through the raised floor panel to the concrete floor.
