Installing the Outer Rails on the Rack

Determine where you want to place the server in the rack (see the Rack and Server
Precautions in Section 2.2).
Note: that servers should always be installed to the bottom of a rack first for stability reasons.
Use the procedure below to install the outer rails onto the rack.
Installing the Outer Rails
1. Press upward on the locking tab at the rear end of the middle rail.
2. Push the middle rail back into the outer rail.
3. Hang the hooks of the front of the outer rail onto the slots on the front of the rack. If
necessary, use screws to secure the outer rails to the rack, as illustrated above.
4. Pull out the rear of the outer rail, adjusting the length until it fits within the posts of the
rack.
5. Hang the hooks of the rear portion of the outer rail onto the slots on the rear of the rack.
If necessary, use screws to secure the rear of the outer rail to the rear of the rack.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 for the remaining outer rail.

Standard Chassis Installation

Installing the Chassis into a Rack
1. Confirm that the inner rails are properly installed on the chassis.
2. Confirm that the outer rails are correctly installed on the rack.
3. Pull the middle rail out from the front of the outer rail and make sure that the ball-
bearing shuttle is at the front locking position of the middle rail.
4. Align the chassis inner rails with the front of the middle rails.
5. Slide the inner rails on the chassis into the middle rails, keeping the pressure even on
both sides, until the locking tab of the inner rail clicks into the front of the middle rail,
locking the chassis into the fully extended position.
6. Depress the locking tabs of both sides at the same time and push the chassis all the
way into the rear of the rack.
7. If necessary for security purposes, use screws to secure the chassis handles to the front
of the rack.
Note: The figure below is for illustration purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom
of the rack first.
