Step 7 Align the mounting bracket holes with the rack post holes and attach the chassis to the rack. At this point, if there is a third person, then that person can insert the screws while the other two people hold that chassis in place, unless the chassis is resting on a shelf).

Step 8 Position the chassis until the rack-mounting ears are flush against the mounting rails on the rack. Step 9 Hold the chassis in position against the mounting rails and follow these steps:

a.Insert the bottom screw into the third hole up from the bottom of the rack mount ear and use a hand-held screwdriver to tighten the screw to the rack rail.

b.Insert the top screw into the third hole down from the top of the rack-mount bracket ear and tighten the screw to the rack rail.

c.Insert a screw in the middle of the rack-mount bracket on both sides of the chassis. See Figure 4. Repeat these steps for the other side of the chassis.

Note As a result of using the specified rack-mount bracket ear holes, the cable-management bracket can be easily attached to the rack-mount bracket when the chassis is in the rack.

This completes the procedure for installing the chassis in the four-post rack. Proceed to the “Attach the Cable-Management Bracket” section on page 10 to continue the installation.
