Rack Mounting MAX Servers
You may not need all the parts included in the kit for every installation.
Before you begin, disassemble the Slide Rail Assemblies: the Stationary, Intermediate and Chassis sections must be separated before they can be attached to the server and rack.
CAUTION: Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your system and working environment from potential damage.
CAUTION: Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack.
After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more than one component out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one extended component could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious injury.
CAUTION: Do not move racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight of the rack, a minimum of two people should accomplish this task.
Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component into or out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then slide the component into the rack.
Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
Step 1: Install Chassis Sections Onto The Server Chassis
The Chassis Sections mount directly to the server chassis, using the middle row of screws on the server chassis.
The server has plastic plugs in the holes that you will use to attach the Chassis Sections, to keep the server chassis sealed in case the server is not
To see how these parts will mount, visually align the Chassis Sections with the middle row of plugs on each side of the server, so that the four screw holes on the Chassis Section rail align with the middle row of plugs on the server.
Make sure to orient the Chassis Sections so that the locking tab button is facing outwards, and located toward the rear of the server.
1.Remove the four plastic plugs from each side of the MAX server.
