Installing into the Rack
After the rails are installed on the chassis and on the rack, the server can be installed in the
rack. It is heavy and requires two to three people to lift.
Installing the Chassis into a Rack
1. Pull both middle rails out the front of the outer rail until each clicks to a stop.
2. Align the inner rails on the chassis with the front of the middle rails.
3. Slide the inner rails on the chassis into the middle rails, keeping the pressure even on
both sides. When partially in, the locking levers will stop further progress.
4. Press down the locking levers on the inside of the inner rails and push the chassis all
the way into the rear of the rack. The front latches will click into place.
The server is now mounted in the rack. It can be pulled partially out for service by lifting both
front latches.
