2. Attach a short bracket to the rear side of the right outer rail, and a long bracket to the
front side of the right outer rail as shown above on the right.
3. Adjust the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the chassis can snugly
fit into the rack.
4. Secure the rails to the cabinet with screws. Repeat steps 1-4 for the left outer rail.
