Warning

 

To prevent personal injury: 

 

Read all safety information before 

you use the Product. 

 

Use the Product only as specified, or 

the protection supplied by the 

Product can be compromised. 

 

Use both lifting handles and good 

lifting practice when lifing or 

carrying any equipment to be 

mounted in the rack. 

Preparation 

Before installing the rack mount kit, remove the top 

and bottom screws from the sides of the front 

instrument handles. Leave the center screws installed. 

Remove the plastic filler strips from the sides of the 

instrument by prying one end of each strip free using 

a flat-head screwdriver. 

Installation 

To install a kit, proceed as follows: 
1.

 

Attach the rack ears to the instrument using two 

#8-32 x ½” pan-head screws for each ear as 

Figure 1 shows. 

2.

 

Install the filler bars on the sides of the instrument 

using two #8-32 x ¼” truss-head machine screws 

per bar as Figure 1 shows, making sure the first 

tapped hole closest to the end of the bar is toward 

the front of the instrument. 

3.

 

Pull the slide rails out from the rack slides and 

push the stopper to fully detatch and disassemble 

the rails. 

4.

 

Attach the slide rails to the filler bars using four 

#8-32 x 3/8-inch pan flathead screws for each rail 

as Figure 1 shows. Mount the 5730A, 5790A, and 

5790B slide rail to the center row of holes. Mount 

the 5725A slide rail to the lower row of holes. 

(See Figure 1.) 

5.

 

Install the front slide brackets (shorter pair) to the 

equipment rack mounting rails as Figure 2 shows. 

(Refer to Figure 3 and 4 for typical mounting 

holes spacing.) If your rack has threaded 

mounting rails, use two #10-32 x ½” truss-head 

screws as shown in Figure 2, Detail A. If your 

rack has unthreaded mounting holes, use two #10-

24 x ½” truss-head screws and two #10-24 U-nuts 

as shown in Figure 2, Detail B. 

6.

 

Install the rear slide bracket (longer pair) to the 

equipment rack mounting brackets the same way 

as the front. 

7.

 

Attach the slides to the front brackets using two 

#8-32 x 3/8-inch flat Philips-head screws, two #8 

flat washers, two #8 lock washers, and two #8 

UNC hex nuts as Figure 2 shows. Align the slides 

to the rear brackets the same way as the front, 

except fully extend the slides to access the screw 

heads. 

8.

 

Plug the instrument into the slides, unlock the 

slides and push the instrument into the rack. 

9.

 

Secure the instrument to the rack by fastening the 

rack ears to the mounting rails with two #10-32 x 

¾” decorative-head screws per ear. If your rack 

has unthreaded mounting rails, install two #10-32 

U-nuts in appropriate places in the rail holes.
