WARNING! Ensure that the rack is level and stable before working on the rack. Be sure the leveling jacks (feet) extend to the floor and that the full weight of the rack rests firmly on the floor. WARNING! Ensure that the rack has anti-tip measures in place. Such measures may include floor-bolting, anti-tip feet, ballast, or a combination of these as specified by the rack manufacturer and applicable codes. WARNING! Ensure that sufficient personnel are on hand to support the product(s) during the installation process. Use of the appropriate lifting device is recommended as an installation aid. WARNING! Always load the rack from the bottom up. Load the heaviest items in the rack first. This makes the rack bottom-heavy and helps prevent it from becoming unstable. WARNING! Do not overload the branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. NOTE: If installing rails into a square hole rack, use larger-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting. If installing rails into a round hole rack, use smaller-sized shoulder screws and pins for mounting. Figure 1 Attach the rails to the rack columns 3. Slide the server into position on the rails (step 3 in Figures 2, 3).
