The NEOs StorageLoader comes with a sliding rail rack kit for easy installation into a
19-inch (EIA-310) rack.
IMPORTANT: Two-post telco-style or other racks less than 29 inches in depth will NOT
support this unit.

vertical rail on the rack.

two front and two rear.
3. Repeat Step 2 for the other rail on the other side.
Attach Mounting Brackets
Using the four T10 Torx screws, attach the mounting brackets to each side of the front
of the library.
Install the Library in Rack
WARNING: It is recommended that a mechanical lifter (or at least two people) be
used to raise and align the unit to prevent injury during installation. Use care when
inserting or removing a unit into or out of a rack to prevent the accidental tipping of
the rack, causing damage or personal injury.
WARNUNG: Um Verletzungen zu vermeiden, empfehlen wir zur Rack-Installation oder
-Deinstallation die Nutzung einer mechanischen Hebehilfe (oder mindestens zwei
Personen). Seien Sie vorsichtig bei der Rack-Installation oder -Entnahme, um ein
versehentliches Kippen des Racks zu vermeiden und das Rack nicht zu beschädigen
bzw. sich selbst zu verletzen.
AVERTISSEMENT: Afin d'éviter des blessures pendant l'installation, il est
recommande d'utiliser un monte-charge (ou au moins deux personnes) pour élever
ou aligner l'appareil. Faites attention lorsque vous insérez ou retirez l'appareil d'un
support, pour empêcher le déversement accidentel de la crémaillère causant des
dommages et des blessures.
