Figure 2
Mounting kit installation
1. Loosely attach the rear support brackets to the chassis with Kepnuts and the 10-32 x
⅜
screws.
2. Position the chassis assembly in the rack to adjust the rear support brackets and note the location for the captive nut fas-
teners on the rear rack rails.
3. Install four fasteners so that the captive nuts are located behind the appropriate holes on the rear rack rails.
4. Loosely attach the chassis assembly to the front and rear rack rails with 10-32 x
⅝
screws. Secure the rear support brackets
to the chassis.
5. Loosely attach the front panel to the rack rails.
6. Install spacer (see Figure 3).
7. Slide the instruments onto the chassis shelf from the rear of the rack. The feet of the 3
½
-inch instrument will fit into holes
in the shelf. The front panel will stop the 5-inch instrument. See the Model 776 installation if applicable.
8. Attach the clamps to the chassis shelf with 8-32 x
⅜
screws. (The clamps should extend over the lip on the rear panel of
the instruments.) Note that there are two sets of mounting holes for clamping 3
½
-inch high instruments of different lengths.
9. Tighten all screws.
