Figure 7: Secure the Rail at the Rear of the Rack
What to do next
Verify that the rails are correctly installed. See
Rail Installation Layout, Square-Hole Rack, on page 26
.
Installing the Rails, Round-Hole Rack
Use the following task to install the rail kit into a round-hole unthreaded equipment rack by using twelve,
M6x1.00 round-hole spring nuts.
Before you begin
Make sure that you have marked the correct cage nut (spring nut) and rail locations on the rack by using the
illustrations of the rack installation templates. See
Rail Installation Templates, on page 12
.
Step 1
Adjust the length of the rail by sliding the ends of the rail back and forth until they match the depth of the rack.
Step 2
At the front of the rack, use the front installation template to position the two locator pegs on the rail with the corresponding
location in the rack. See
Front Install Template, on page 13
The locator pegs will keep the rail in the rack so that you don't have to hold the rail in place.
Step 3
At the rear of the rack, use the rear installation template to position the two locator pegs on the rail with the corresponding
location in the rack. See
Rear Install Template, on page 13
Step 4
Repeat the previous steps to install the other rack rail.
