Installing the Outer Rails onto the Rack
Each end of the assembled outer rail includes a bracket with square pegs to fit into your rack holes. If you have an older rack with round holes, these brackets must be removed, and you must use screws to secure the rail to the rack.
Outer Rail Installation
-
Align the square pegs on the back end of the rail with the square holes on the front of the rack until it clicks. Lift the latch upward and push the middle rail to the rear.
-
Adjust the rail to reach just past the full depth of your rack. Align the square pegs on the front end of the rail to the holes on the rack. Turn the latch to open position and push the pegs into the front for the rack holes.
-
Lock the latch.
Important: This figure is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom of a rack first.
