Warning:
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the floor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to
stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
Figure 2-2. Preparing to Install the Chassis Rails
Installing the Chassis Rails
You will need to remove the top cover and the feet to add rack rails to the chassis. First,
remove the top and right covers (top and left covers when standing as a tower chassis) by
first removing the screws that secure them to the chassis. Depress the button on the top
(side if tower) of the chassis to release the cover and then pull the cover off. Then unscrew
the four feet and remove them from the chassis (see Figure 2-2).
You can now attach rack rails to the top and bottom (now the sides) of the chassis. First
add the rack handles. Then position the inner chassis rail sections you just removed along
the side of the chassis making sure the screw holes line up. Note that these two rails are
left/right specific. Screw the rail securely to the side of the chassis (see Figure 2-3). Repeat
this procedure for the other rail on the other side of the chassis. The system should not be
installed into a telco rack.
Locking Tabs: As mentioned, the chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions.
The first is to lock the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack, which
is its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place when fully extended
from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when you
pull it out for servicing.
