Assembly Procedure

1.Lay the chassis on a protected work surface on its long side with the voltage monitor LEDs of the chassis facing front with the power switch toward the top.

2.Locate two rackmount (cross) braces. Install one each along the front of the flanges (one on top and one on the bottom) using four (two ea.) #8 flathead screws. The lip along the long edge of each brace goes toward the front and pointing inside. The braces fit over the flanges and the screws are placed from the inside going through the flange and then into the brace.

3.Locate the front door and two hinges. Install the two hinges to the front door using four black screws provided.

4.Locate the latch kit and install it into the door from the side where the hinges are mounted.

5.Locate the door latch bracket and install it on the rackmount ear opposite the end where the hinges will be installed. Use Figure 1-6as a reference.

6.Locate the four tapped holes on the front surface of the rackmount ear to which the door is to be attached.

7.Install the door by its hinges to the rackmount ear using four black screws provided with the option kit.

8.Test that the door opens and closes smoothly and adjust the latch as necessary to secure the door when latched close.
