Installing the Storage Enclosure
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment,
be sure that:
■
The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
■
The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
■
The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single rack installation.
■
The racks are coupled in multiple rack installations.
■
A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended for
any reason. Extend only one component at a time.
Here are some tips before installing the storage enclosure:
■
Always start at the bottom of the rack, or at the top of a previously
mounted component, and work up.
■
Always make sure that the rack-mounting rails are level from front to
back.
■
Have a pencil available before you begin.
