Installing Equipment
To install rack-mount equipment in the enclosure:
1. Review the equipment manufacturer’s installation instructions.
2. Locate the top and bottom U-space on the vertical mounting rails.
Every third hole on the mounting rails is numbered to indicate the
middle of a U-space.

then install the equipment. (To remove a cage nut, squeeze the sides
to release it from the square hole.)
WARNING
TIP HAZARD
This enclosure is easily tipped. Follow the precautions below during and after equipment installation.
• Make sure you have secured the enclosure to the floor before installing equipment.
• Install the heaviest equipment first toward the bottom of the enclosure to prevent the enclosure
from becoming top-heavy.
• Do not extend equipment on sliding rails until you have installed 158 kg (350 lbs) of equipment into
the bottom of the enclosure for stability or until you have installed the stabilizer plate or bolt-down
brackets. Do not extend more than one piece of equipment on sliding rails at a time.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
