WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that the rack leveling feet are extended to the floor and support the full weight of the rack. Each rack must be level and stable. Racks that are not coupled together require the installation of stabilizers. This must be done before you perform any work on the rack. See the Rack Planning and Installation Guide for more information on leveling feet and stabilizers. Measuring with the Template The template provided with the server offers an easy and reliable way to properly position the server in the rack. Use the tabs on the template to suspend it from the lower hole of a two-hole set of perforations in the vertical side rails. Pencil mark the attachment points for the mounting bracket assemblies, the cage nuts for the face-plate thumb screws, and the top of the server. Use the tick marks on the rack side rails to insure level installation of the server. See illustrations and instructions printed on the template. IMPORTANT: Determine the server's place in the rack before you start installing the mounting bracket assemblies. To remind you of the proper placement of the server in the rack, refer to the Rack Builder report you printed when you planned your rack configuration. Always mount the heaviest item on the bottom of the rack and work from the bottom to the top.

Slide Assembly to the Rack
!
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment, be sure that the rack leveling feet are extended to the floor
and support the full weight of the rack. Each rack must be level and
stable. Racks that are not coupled together require the installation of
stabilizers. This
must
be done before you perform any work on the rack.
See the
Rack Planning and Installation Guide
for more information on
leveling feet and stabilizers.
Measuring with the Template
The template provided with the server offers an easy and reliable way to
properly position the server in the rack. Use the tabs on the template to suspend
it from the
lower
hole of a two-hole set of perforations in the vertical side rails.
Pencil mark the attachment points for the mounting bracket assemblies, the
cage nuts for the face-plate thumb screws, and the top of the server. Use the tick
marks on the rack side rails to insure level installation of the server. See
illustrations and instructions printed on the template.
IMPORTANT:
Determine the server's place in the rack
before
you start installing
the mounting bracket assemblies. To remind you of the proper placement of the
server in the rack, refer to the Rack Builder report you printed when you planned
your rack configuration. Always mount the heaviest item on the bottom of the rack
and work from the bottom to the top.
