Installing cage nuts

Cage nuts are used to secure systems and other components to the vertical rails in the rack.

To install cage nuts:

1Insert the lower lip of the cage nut over the bottom of the opening at the back of a rail.

2Insert the small end of the cage-nut installation tool through the opening in front of the rail and hook the tool over the top lip of the M6 cage nut as shown below.

Note: If the rack’s rail has a rounded screw hole you must use the M610 cage nut.

3Push in the cage nut while rotating the tool up and pulling the tool back toward you until the top lip of the cage nut snaps into position.

4Repeat this process to install the other cage nuts in their appropriate locations.
