hardware provided in your ship kit. If different style rails are being used, or if your
rack requires different hardware, refer to the instructions provided with your rail or
rack ship kit.

down on the right locking tab and lift up on the left locking tab in order to release it

Step 1
• Locate the two rack rail brackets that came in your ship kit.
• Attach the medium-sized adjustable rack bracket to the longer fixed rack
bracket as shown.
• Insert the tab on the rear of the medium adjustable rack bracket through
the larger round opening on the back end of the long fixed rack bracket
and slide the long bracket forward to keep the two brackets from coming
apart. These rail brackets slide to accommodate different rack depths.
