WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
Extend the leveling jacks to the floor. And ensure that the full weight of the
rack rests on the leveling jacks.
Ensure that the stabilizing feet are attached to the rack in a standalone
rack installation.
Couple together racks in multiple rack installations.
Extend only one component at a time. A rack may become unstable if
more than one component is extended for any reason.
