To install the shelf brackets in a rack, follow these steps.
1. Position a shelf bracket inside the rack-mounting rails as shown in Figure 1-2.
Align the screw holes at the front of the shelf bracket with the holes in the
front rack-mounting rail, and then attach the shelf bracket to the front
rack-mounting rail using a minimum of four 1/4-20 screws.
Note: The bottom hole of the shelf bracket should align with the bottom hole
of a rack unit on the rack-mounting rail (the hole immediately above the
1/2-inch spacing).
2. Align the screw holes at the back of the shelf bracket with the holes in the back
rack-mounting rail, and then attach the shelf bracket to the back rack-mounting
rail using a minimum of four 1/4-20 screws.
3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 with the other shelf bracket.
4. Verify that the shelf brackets are at the same height (using the level or tape
measure as desired).
