  To ensure rack stability, plan the installation of servers in the rack starting from the bottom.


To attach the mounting hardware to the rack:

  1.  Remove the rack front door. Refer to the rack  documentation for instructions.
  2.  Mark the positions of the slide-bracket assemblies,  bezel brackets, and the cable-management arm on  the rack:

    1.  Position the installation template on the front  mounting rails on the rack, aligning the holes.
    2.  Mark the holes for the slide-bracket assemblies  and bezel brackets.

       
    3.  Install two cage nuts to each of the two front  mounting brackets for the bezel brackets.
    4.  Attach the template to the rear mounting rails.  Mark the locations for the slide-bracket  assemblies and cable-management arm.

  3.  Attach a slide-bracket assembly to the front of the rack:

    NOTE:

    1.  Position the slide-bracket assembly behind the  mounting rail so that the slides will extend out  from the front of the rack.
    2.  If necessary, loosen the screws at the rear of the  slide bracket assembly and adjust the length of  the slide-bracket to fit the mounting rail. Tighten the screws.

       
    3.  Position a nut bar behind the slide-bracket assembly.
    4.  Insert screws (16M by 16 mm) through the  mounting rail, slide-bracket assembly, and nut  bar. Do not tighten the screws.

     
  4.  Attach the slide bracket assembly to the rear of the rack:

    1.  Position the slide-bracket assembly inside the mounting rail.
    2.  Position a nut bar behind the slide-bracket assembly.
    3.  Insert screws through the mounting rail, slide-bracket assembly, and nut bar.  Do not tighten the screws.

     
  5.  Attach the other slide-bracket assembly to the front  and rear of the rack.
  6.  Push the slide-bracket assemblies to the outermost  positions on the rack.
  7.  Tighten all screws to secure both slide-bracket  assemblies.
     If you are using a torque screwdriver,  use the following torque setting: 8-11 Nm (70.8-97.0 in/lbs).

  8.  Attach the cable-management arm to the rear of the rack:

    1.  Position the cable-management arm bracket on the outside of the mounting rail.
    2.  Insert screws (M6 by 16 mm) through the cable-management arm bracket, mounting rail,  and cage nuts. Tighten the screws.
