What to do next
To accommodate equipment racks with different mounting hole patterns, the aid brackets have groups of
screw holes on either side.
The mounting holes in the aid brackets are spaced so that one mounting hole in each hole group aligns with
a corresponding hole in the equipment rack. By using the corresponding mounting hole (in the same hole
group) on the opposite side of the rack, you can keep both the aid brackets leveled.
When you are installing the chassis in a rack, leave the filler cards in place to provide the chassis with enough
support to keep it square during the procedure.
Caution
Because of the chassis size and weight, it is unsafe to lift the chassis without mechanical assistance.
Caution
Removing the Chassis Door
Before installing the chassis in a rack, remove the front door of the chassis to ensure that the door is not
damaged in any way.
