6. Use from four to eight #8-32 x 3/16-inch flathead screws on each side to attach the
side brackets to each side of the enclosure. The right and left side brackets are
identical.
Note –
To allow adjustment of the brackets, do not tighten the screws completely
until the enclosure is mounted in the rack.
a. Use the alignment marks (Figure 2-2) stamped into the side brackets to position
the brackets and screws. The alignment marks show depth in inches.
Determine the depth you require and align the rear-most alignment mark on the
side bracket with the rear-most threaded holes on the enclosure. Make sure that
the alignment mark corresponding to the depth you want lines up with both the
top and bottom holes.

b. On one side, insert the first two screws through the side bracket slots above and
below the alignment mark into the rear-most threaded holes in the enclosure.
For example, to mount the enclosure in a 27-inch deep rack, position the side
bracket so that the 27-inch alignment mark is aligned with the rear-most threaded
holes in the enclosure.
c. Insert up to six more screws through the side bracket slots into the other threaded
holes in the side of the enclosure.
d. Repeat Step b and Step c to attach the other side bracket to the enclosure.
7. Attach the rear brackets to the rear vertical posts of the rack. Use two screws and
two washers, if required, to attach each bracket to a post.
Use the appropriate fasteners for the posts; either:
■
Four #10-32 x 1/2-inch or 1-inch panhead screws with #10 washers
■
Four 5-mm panhead screws with #10 washers
■
Four 6-mm panhead screws (no washers required)
8. If necessary, remove the drive modules and power and cooling modules from the
enclosure to reduce the weight.
