Six holes on the chassis side align with six holes in the front bracket when
the front bracket is mounted flush with the chassis front or recessed 2 in.

Insert M4x6-mm Phillips flat-head mounting screws into the two aligned holes and
tighten the screws. Ensure that the remaining four holes in the front bracket are aligned
with the four holes in the side panel. See Figure 31 on page 84.
