6. Position the pallet so that the bottom of the chassis is level with
the installation surface.
7. If the chassis is on a pallet jack or lift, stabilize to prevent the chassis
from moving during the transfer.
8. Unscrew the four bolts holding the DC Director to the pallet and
remove the brackets.
9. Gently slide the chassis onto the final installation surface, ensuring
that it remains supported during the transfer.
IMPORTANT:
To ensure adequate cooling, install the chassis with the nonport
side facing the air-intake aisle. This prevents the fans from
pulling in heated exhaust air.
10. Reinstall the cable management comb and chassis door.
