Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contain instructions and warnings that must be followed during the installation and operation of the product described in this manual. Failure to comply may invalidate the warranty and cause property damage or personal injury.

Use the included shelves and mounting hardware to mount your rackmount equipment in a 4-post rack or rack enclosure. If you need to install your equipment in a 2-post rack, order Tripp Lite’s 2-Post Rackmount Kit (model: 2POSTRMKITWM).

The instructions in this manual are for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all mounting applications. You must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. If hardware or procedures are not suitable for your application, contact the manufacturer of your rack or rack enclosure for a solution.

Rackmount equipment may be extremely heavy—be careful when moving or lifting equipment. Use one or more assistants if necessary.

Installation

1The included plastic pegs A will temporarily support the empty rackmount shelves B while you install the permanent mounting hardware. Insert a peg near the center of the front and rear bracket of each shelf as shown. (Each front bracket has 6 holes and each rear bracket has 3 holes.) The pegs will snap into place.

After installing the pegs, expand each shelf to match the depth of your rack rails. The pegs will fit through the square holes in the rack rails to support the shelves. Refer to the rack unit labels to confirm that the shelves are level in all directions. Note: The support ledge of each shelf must face inward.

2Secure the shelves B to the mounting rails permanently using the included screws and cup washers C as shown.

For 2U equipment mounting, place 4 screws total at the front and 4 screws total at the back.

For 3U equipment mounting, place 6 screws total at the front and 4 screws total at the back.

Tighten all screws before proceeding.

Warning: Do not attempt to install your equipment until you have inserted and tightened the required screws. The plastic pegs will not support the weight of your equipment.
