10.2.1 Installing the slide rails
Note: The left and right orientation of the slide rails is referenced from the front of the rack. It is easiest
to first install the pins of the slide rail into the back of the rack and then attach the front of the slide rail
to the front of the rack.
__ 1. Use a screwdriver to remove the 10-32 screw ( 8 in Figure 2 on page 9) from the rear of each slide
rail.
__ 2. Get the left slide rail which is marked with an L (left).
__ 3. See Figure 3. If a thumbscrew is installed in the slide rail 1 , remove it.
Figure 3. Remove the thumbscrew
__ 4. See Figure 4 on page 11. Working from the front of the rack, install the slide rails in the selected
position. To do so:
__ a. Align the left slide rail with the three holes at the rear of the rack 1 .
__ b. Insert the pins into the holes in the back rail 2 and push firmly until the pins lock into
place in the rack 3 .
Note: It is easier to push the rail into the rear of the rack when you are standing in the
front of the rack.
