provided nutplates.
4.
Assemble the NAV and Main rear plates into the GIA 63W unit rack.
5.
Carefully slide the GIA 63W into the rack. Ensure that the orientation of the unit allows for the
engagement of the locking stud in the channel on the rack. The unit can only be installed in one
direction.
6.
Push the GIA 63W lever down towards the bottom of the unit. This engages the locking stud
with the dogleg slot and locks unit into the rack. If there is excessive resistance, do not force
the unit.
7.
Lock the handle into the GIA 63W body and tighten the Phillips screw.
CAUTION
Do not use excessive force when inserting the GIA 63W into the rack. This may cause
damage to the connectors, unit and/or unit rack. If excessive resistance is felt during
installation, stop! Remove the GIA 63W and identify the source of resistance. The rear
plates are designed to float in the unit rack. Check to ensure the rear plates are not bound
by the connectors or spring clip.
