and follow these steps for each rail:
1. Verify where to place the controller rails in the rack. See
Guidelines for Installing Mounting Rails in a Rack
2. From the front of the rack, fit the rear portion of the rail in the desired U holes on the outside of the rear post
and pull the rail forward until the latch locks in place (Callout 1).
3. Pull the front end of the rail past the front post.
4. Fit the front portion of the rail in the desired U holes on the post and push the rail into the rack until the latch
locks in place (Callout 2). You should hear the latch click twice. Make sure that the front bracket is flush
with the rack.
Check both ends of the rails to ensure they are fully seated in the same rack hole positions and that the rails are
level.
