2.3 Installing the Rails
This section provides information on installing the chassis into a rack unit with the rails
provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean that the assembly
procedure differs slightly. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with
the rack unit you are using.
These rails fit a rack between 26" and 33.05" deep.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes a rail set that includes the inner and outer rail pieces that
attaches to the rack.
Assembling the Inner Rails
The inner rack rails are left/right specific and they attach to the chassis with a single screw
each, as shown in the following illustration:

Warning:
do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull
the system from a rack only.
