Marking the Rack with the Template

Use the paper template provided with the kit to mark the cage nut and
mounting bracket positions on the rack.
1. Starting at the bottom of the rack or at the top of a previously mounted
component, place the template in the desired location on the front of the
rack and secure it with the two push tabs. Make sure that you match the
hole pattern printed on the template with the actual holes on the rack's
vertical rails.

2. Use a pencil to mark the top four locations indicated on the template for
the two mounting brackets. These locations are for screws, not cage
nuts.
3. Use a pencil to mark the bottom four locations indicated on the template
for the cage nuts that will hold the captive thumbscrews on the rack
faceplate.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 on the back rails of the rack. On the back of the
rack template, these locations are for four cage nuts. Also mark where
the top of the template is on the rack. This helps align the next
components.
