Step 4
Making certain the proper mounting holes on rack upright are selected, repeat the above step at the slide
rail front mounting position. Ensure slide rail is level.
Step 5
Fully extend the slide rail to its fully extended (locked) position. Press the Slide Extension Release
Levers to release the lock. Move the slide rail in and out throughout its entire range of motion and make
certain it does not bind.
If you notice some binding, recheck the mounting positions.
Step 6
Repeat Steps 2 through 5 for the right slide rail, ensuring that it is parallel and level with the left slide
rail.
Installing the Slide Rails into a Rack with Round Holes
Caution
If you mount the slide rail in holes that are not vertically aligned from front to back, you can damage the
slide rail and your mounting may not be secure.
Note
When you install the rail hardware into a rack with round holes, you must position the rails so that they
are inside the rack with the brackets facing outward. This placement decreases the amount of space
between the posts into which you will slide the chassis. Ensure that you have adequate space for the
chassis to slide into the rack.
The required clearance is approximately 17.4 inches, or 44.2 centimeters.
To install the slide rails into the rack, perform the following procedure:
Step 1
At all four rack uprights, determine the vertical position in the rack where the slide rails are to be
installed. The top-most mounting hole for a particular Rack Unit (RU) mounting position is typically
identified by a mark or hole.
Step 2
Noting the holes that you determined in Step 1, align the left slide rail with its mounting holes.
