Rack preparation
1. Select a position in the rack. In most cases, the weight of the System 40 dictates a position in the lower half of the rack.
The System 40 typically takes up 10.5" of vertical space.
NOTE
2. Install chassis support assemblies in the rack and secure them.
3. Lift the System 40 onto the chassis supports and slide it into the rack.
4. The chassis can be secured to the front rack flanges with binder head screws.
System earth ground installation
1. Remove all power from the system.
2. Connect the loose end of the six foot green/yellow ground cable to a quality ground located within your facility using the
#10 screw provided.

The System 40 must be separately connected to a safety earth ground to maintain pro-
tection against possible shock hazard. Failure to connect the unit to a safety earth
ground may result in personal injury or death due to an electric shock.
The chassis must be mounted at a height that is an increment of 1 " from the top or bottom
of the rack. Attempting to mount the mainframe at a non-incremental height will lead to dif-
ficulties with hole alignment.
