Installing the Rails in a Rack
Determine the proper position of the rails in the rack.
Warning
Consider rack stability when deciding where to place the
StorageLibrary
.
Hazardous conditions can result from un
even mechanical loading of a rack.
The
StorageLibrary
uses 4U of vertical rack space. The rails must be installed in a full U position. The
bottom of the rails must be a
ligned with the bottom of a U.

Adjust the Left Rail Assembly
to fit the measurement in step 1.

Use a
7-
mm open
-
end wrench together with the screwdriver to tighten the
two M4x12 screws to
fix the rail length. Using more than two screws increases the stability of the
Rack mounting
Kit.

on the left side of the rack, between the rear
rack mount
rail and the
front
rack mount
rail.

at the desired height using one M6x12 screw in front (upper hole in
rail only) and two M6x12 screws at the backside.
Installing the Right Rail Assembly
Follow the instruction for left s
ide, only using the Right Rail Assembly
on the right si
de of the rack.
