Locate the chassis serial number. You can find the number on the packing slip, in 
your confirmation email, or on the controller-drive tray after you unpack it.

WARNING:

 Install hardware from the bottom of the cabinet up 

to the top to prevent the equipment from toppling over.

Left and right rails
Left and right rear hold-down brackets for additional bracing, if needed

You need this hardware to install the rails (the kit also includes extra screws):

16 screws (8 for the rails, 4 for the brackets, 4 for securing the tray)
8 washers (used only for cabinets with square holes)

Extend the rail by loosening the two adjustment screws.
Starting at the lowest available position in the cabinet, align the holes on the 
ends of the rail with the holes on the cabinet. Confirm that the rail is level.

Secure the front of the rail to the cabinet by counting down from the top of the 
rail and inserting two screws into the 2

nd

 and 4

th 

rail

 holes. Use the washers if 

the cabinet has square holes.

Secure the rear of the rail to the cabinet with two screws (and washers if the 
cabinet has square holes). Use the same set of holes as in the front.
If you plan to ship an empty tray in the cabinet, secure the hold-down
brackets to the back of the cabinet by counting up from the bottom of the 
rail and inserting screws into the 8th and 11th cabinet holes. The tray must be 
empty when shipped.
