·
Make sure the rack is properly secured to the floor or ceiling.
·
Make sure the stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack
installation.
·
Make sure racks are coupled together if it is a multiple-rack installation.
·
Make sure the rack is level and stable before installing an appliance in the
rack.
·
Make sure the leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
·
Make sure the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
·
Always load the rack from the bottom up. Load the heaviest component in
the rack first.
·
Make sure the rack is level and stable before pulling a component out of the
rack.
·
Make sure only one component is extended at a time. A rack might become
unstable if more than one component is extended.
To avoid damage to the equipment:
·
The rack width and depth must allow for proper serviceability and cable
management.
·
Ensure that there is adequate airflow in the rack. Improper installation or
restricted airflow can damage the equipment.
·
The rack cannot have solid or restricted airflow doors. You must use a
mesh door on the front and back of the rack or remove the doors to ensure
adequate air flow to the system.
·
If you install the Model in a rack, do not place equipment on top of the unit.
It will cause restricted airflow and might cause damage to the equipment.
·
Make sure the product is properly matted with the rails. Products that are
improperly matted with the rails might be unstable.
·
Verify that the AC power supply branch circuit that provides power to the
rack is not overloaded. This will reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or
damage to the equipment. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent
of the branch circuit rating. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction
over your facility wiring and installation requirements.
