Installing the Chassis into a Rack

Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, the chassis is ready to be installed into a rack.

Important: Mounting or removing the system from the rack requires at least three people to support the chassis during installation. Follow the safety recommendations printed on the rails.

  1. Align the chassis carefully and push it into the extension outer rail, as illustrated below.

  2. Once the chassis is mounted in the outer rail, it can be pushed all the way into the rack.

  3. After you've secured the main chassis to the rack, mount each tray one at a time. Push each tray to the back of the chassis and secure the trays with two flathead screws to prevent them from sliding out.
