Mounting the Kahuna 6400 6RU Mainframe
Warning!
The Mainframe will require an 6RU space within a rack system. Please read the above warning
before attempting to fit the mainframe into a rack. It may be of assistance to remove the power
supplies from the mainframe before lifting (See
Removing the Mainframe Power Supplies
on
page 72).
1 Check that the rack is rigid enough to take the weight of the mainframe.
2 Once moved into position, the mainframe will require support.
A suitable rack tray may be of assistance to take the weight of the mainframe whilst
securing it to the rack.
3 There are 2 pre-cut slots running down the left side of the front door these allow access to
the mounting holes on the mainframe rack flanges, to access the mounting holes on the
right side of the mainframe, the mainframe front door will have to be opened, to do this;
unscrew the lock screw above the door handle counter-clockwise then pull on the door
handle to open.
4 The mainframe is fastened to the rack system using 4x M6 (1/4 inch) screws (screws are
available from rack suppliers).
Note:
The
Kahuna 6400 6RU Mainframe
is very heavy (40kg – 88lb) and
will require several people to lift into position using correct lifting
procedures. If you are unsure of the lifting procedures, ask a Health and
Safety adviser for information.
