Install a mounting screw into each of the open front-mounting holes aligned with the
7.
rack, starting from the bottom.
Visually inspect the alignment of the switch. If the switch is installed properly in the
8.
rack, all the mounting screws on one side of the rack are aligned with the mounting
screws on the opposite side and the switch is level.
After ensuring that the switch is aligned properly, tighten the screws.

Configuring a QFX10000 on page 170
If you cannot use a mechanical lift to install the switch (the preferred method), you can
install it manually.
CAUTION: The chassis weighs approximately 145 lb (66 kg) with only the
fan tray controllers installed. Lifting the chassis and mounting it in a rack or
cabinet requires at least three people. Make sure the chassis is empty
(contains only the backplane) before you lift it.
The chassis has two handles that are designed for subtle positioning of the
chassis. Do not lift the chassis by the handles.
