Required Tools and Hardware for Rackmount Installation

You need a Phillips screwdriver to install your autoloader into a rack.

Make sure you have all the necessary parts you need before you begin installation. You need the following parts:

■8 clip nuts, plus four additional clip nuts (included with your rack) if using the optional installation rails

■2 U-channel brackets with spring clips

■2 rear support brackets

■8 rear support bracket screws

■8 mounting screws (plus four additional mounting screws if using the optional installation rails)

■Rack template

Rackmounting

WARNING: It takes two people to safely rackmount your autoloader.

WARNING: Before you begin, make sure that the rack is sufficiently stable. If provided, lower the rack leveler feet and make sure any required stabilizers are installed. If provided, extend the rack anti-tip device. Failure to extend the anti-tip device could result in personal injury or damage to the tape autoloader if the rack tips over.

Caution: Do not remove the top cover of the autoloader during the installation process. Removing the top cover could result in damage to the autoloader. It also causes the autoloader chassis to bow and prevents correct installation.

Caution: Make sure that the rack and all equipment mounted in the rack have a reliable ground connection. Verify that the total current of the rack components does not exceed the current rating of the power distribution unit or outlet receptacles.
