Mounting the System to the Rack
When the appropriate mounting brackets are securely installed, the
SCE 1000
can be installed
into the rack.
To mount the
SCE 1000
to the rack after the brackets are installed, complete the following steps:
Step 1
Make sure that your path to the rack is unobstructed. If the rack is on wheels, ensure that the
brakes are engaged or that the rack is otherwise stabilized.
Step 2
Position the
SCE 1000
so that the front end is closest to you, and lift it carefully to place it into
the rack. To prevent injury, avoid sudden twists or moves.
Step 3
Slide the
SCE 1000
into the rack, pushing it back until the brackets (installed at the front of the
SCE 1000
) meet the mounting strips or posts on both sides of the rack.
A rack with both front and back posts will have the crossrail supports installed. Slide the
SCE
1000
onto these crossrails and push it all the way back.

Step 4
While keeping the brackets flush against the posts or mounting strips, align the holes in the
brackets with the holes on the rack or mounting strip.
