Step 1 Step 2 Position the chassis so the front is closest to you and slide the chassis into the rack, pushing it back until the rack-mount brackets meet the mounting strips or posts on both sides of the rack. To prevent injury, avoid any sudden twists or moves. Make certain that the chassis rack-mount bracket ears are flush against the mounting rails on the rack. Note Because the rack-mount brackets support the weight of the entire chassis, be sure to use all screws to fasten the rack-mount brackets on the chassis to the rack posts. Tip To allow space to attach the cable-management brackets to the chassis in the rack easily, make certain that you use the rack-mount bracket ear holes specified in Step 3. Step 3 Step 4 Hold the chassis in position and follow these steps: a. Insert the bottom screw into the fifth hole from the top of the rack-mount bracket ear and use a hand-held screwdriver to tighten the screw to the rack rail. b. Insert the top screw into the second bracket ear hole from the top of the rack-mount bracket ear hole diagonally from the bottom screw and tighten the screw to the rack rail. See Figure 5. Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for the other side of the chassis. Note As a result of using the specified rack-mount bracket ear holes, the cable-management bracket can be attached easily to the rack-mount bracket after the chassis is in the rack. 8
