Installing the 4U rack kit
WARNING:
The server is very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the
equipment:
•
Reduce the weight of the server by removing the hard drives and power supplies before
installing the server into the rack.
•
At least two people are required to lift the server during installation or removal.
CAUTION:
Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack.
Install the heaviest item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.
Before installing the rail kit, release the handle and open the door.
1.
Insert the rail in the rack column.
2.
Insert the two middle standoffs on the rail into the holes on the front rack column.

To secure the front of the rail to the front rack column, fasten the shoulder screws.
