Make sure there is sufficient clearance for the storage enclosure when fully extended in the service position and for a

technician or system administrator.

Observe rack cabinet weight limits.

Fill the rack cabinet from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest equipment at the bottom.

Make your approach with the mechanical lift level, straight, and parallel to the rack cabinet. Any skew, warp, or tilt

prevents the inner rails attached to the storage enclosure from properly engaging the outer rails in the rack cabinet.

To mount the storage enclosure into the rack cabinet:

1. Confirm that the rack rails are properly assembled and securely installed correctly in the rack cabinet.

2. Confirm that the storage enclosure does not contain any disk drives.

3. Complete the following actions to position the lift and the storage enclosure:

a. Using proper safety precautions, position the storage enclosure on the lift perpendicular to the lift wheels.

b. Move the lift into position perpendicular to the rack cabinet so that the storage enclosure is parallel to the

opening and is a minimum of 5 to 7 inches (12.7cm to 17.78cm) away from the rack cabinet.

c. Adjust the lift height to be as close as possible to the allocated 4U location.

d. Moving only the storage enclosure, position it so the attached inner rails align with the mid rails in the rack.
