2.2 Installing the Rails
There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly
procedure. The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack. Also refer
to the installation instructions that came with the rack.
This rail set fits a rack between 28" and 33.5" deep.
Do not use a two post "telco" type rack.
1. Identify the left rail set and right rail set, as they are different.
2. In each rail set, the two sections are screwed together to keep them immobile during
shipping. Release these screws just enough to allow the rail sections to slide apart. Note
the arrow on the rail, which indicates the end that attaches to the front of the rack.
3. Slide the rail sections apart far enough to match the depth of the rack. Hang the hooks
on the rear end of the rail onto the square holes in the rear of the rack.
4. Push the two square pegs on the front of the rail through the square holes in the front
of the rack. Be sure the rail is level, front to back. Secure the front of the rail to the rack
with one flathead screw.
5. Tighten the screws that keep the two rail sections from sliding.
6.
Install the other rail set. Be sure it is even with the first.
7. With one person on either side, lift the system and slide it onto the installed rails.
8. After pushing the enclosure all the way into the rack, use the thumbscrew on each side
of the server to lock it into place.
