Getting Started

3.Align the rear bracket to the right slide-out track as shown in Figure 1±7. Note that the rear bracket has two pairs of mount-through holes. When aligning the bracket and the track, select a pair of holes that mount the rear bracket so the flange-to-flange distance (see Figure 1±7) matches the front rail to rear rail spacing that you just measured in step 2.

NOTE. If necessary, refer to the rackmount kit instructions for detailed installation information.

4.Attach the rear bracket to the right slide-out track using two 10-32 screws and a bar nut as shown in Figure 1±7. Leave the screws loose so that you can adjust the overall length of the slide-out track assembly when installing the mainframe in the rack. Use the extended length brackets to comply with deeper rackmounts.

5.Repeat steps 3 and 4 to assemble the left slide-out track assembly.
