installed in the rack.
• At least two persons are required to safely lift, place, and attach
the unit into a rack system.
• Do not lift or move the unit by the handles, power supplies or the
controller units. Hold the system itself.
• Do not install the unit into a rack without rails to support the
system.
• Only a qualified technician who is familiar with the installation
procedure should mount and install the unit.

fully tightened, at each end of the rail.
• Do not load the rails unless they are installed with screws as
instructed.
• The rails available for the PROMISE Vess unit are designed to safely
support that PROMISE Vess unit when properly installed. Additional
loading on the rails is at the customer’s risk.
• PROMISE Technology, Inc. cannot guarantee that the mounting rails
