Installing The Versarails Slide Assemblies - Dell PowerEdge 15FP Installation Manual

(Optional) If desired, to further secure the slide assemblies you can install the four
5
10-32 x 0.5-inch flange-head Phillips screws and centering washers that came with the
1-U KMM kit. Mount a centering washer on each screw and install the screw through
the center square hole for each rail into the screw hole in the mounting-bracket flange.
See Figure 1-4.

Installing the VersaRails Slide Assemblies

At the front of the rack cabinet, position one of the VersaRails slide assemblies so that
1
its mounting-bracket flange fits between the marks or tape (or numbered location) on
the rack. See Figure 1-5.
Ensure that the three holes on the front of the mounting bracket align with three of
the holes between the marks you made on the front vertical rail.
To secure the slide assembly to the front vertical rail, install two 10-32 x 0.5-inch
2
flange-head Phillips screws from the outside of the rack. Mount a centering washer
onto each screw and then insert the screws through the vertical rail into the mounting
flange's top and bottom holes. See Figure 1-5.
At the back of the cabinet, pull back on the mounting-bracket flange until the
3
mounting holes align with their respective holes on the back vertical rail.
Install two 10-32 x 0.5-inch flange-head Phillips screw-and-washer sets in the back
4
mounting holes to secure the slide assembly to the back vertical rail.
Repeat step 1 through step 4 for the slide assembly on the other side of the rack.

Ensure that the slide assemblies are mounted at the same position on the vertical rails
6
on each side of the rack.
