Warning

Warning: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special

precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your

safety:

This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack. When mounting this

unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the

bottom of the rack.

If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in

the rack.

Step 1

Attach the inner rails to the sides of the server:

Front side of the server

a) Align an inner rail with one side of the server so that the three keyed slots in the rail align with the three pegs on the

side of the server (see the figure above).

b) Set the keyed slots over the pegs, and then slide the rail toward the front to lock it in place on the pegs. The front slot

has a metal clip that locks over the front peg.

c) Install the second inner rail to the opposite side of the server.

Step 2

Open the front securing plate on both slide-rail assemblies. The front end of the slide-rail assembly has a spring-loaded

securing plate that must be open before you can insert the mounting pegs into the rack-post holes.

On the outside of the assembly, push the green arrow button toward the rear to open the securing plate.
