2.3 Installing the Chassis into the Rack
This section provides information on installing the CSE-506-R300 chassis into a rack unit.
Due to the variety of rack units on the market, the assembly procedure might differ slightly.
Also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Standard Rack
Installing the Chassis into a Standard Rack
1. Gather the four mounting screws shipped with the system.
2. Align the mounting holes of the chassis with the thru-holes of the rack.
3. Insert the mounting screws into the thru-holes in the front of the chassis and tighten the
screws until the chassis is secured to the rack.
Warning:
Do not pick up the server by the front handles. They are designed to pull
the system from a rack only.
Stability hazard.
The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must
be bolted to the floor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the
rack can cause the rack to tip over.
