Unpacking the UPS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to
the equipment:
• Do not use the lift-out tray to transport or carry the UPS.
• Use the lift-out tray to unload the UPS.
• The battery modules are charged from the factory. Do not
touch the connectors.
Transport the packaged UPS to its installation location. Unpack the
UPS near the rack where it will be assembled. Follow the
unpacking instructions on the carton. Verify that all components
are present.
Mounting the Rails
The UPS must be mounted on the fixed rails supplied with the unit.
Before beginning this installation process, review and adhere to the
following precautions.
WARNING: To prevent personal injury, verify that the rack
containing the UPS is stable. The following conditions must be
met:
• The leveling feet are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a
single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together if it is a multi-rack
installation.
• Only one component should be extended at a time. A rack
may become unstable if more than one component is
extended for any reason.
IMPORTANT: Do not power up the UPS until assembly is complete.
To mount the rails:
1. Loosen the nuts (1) and extend the brackets (2) to the desired
length. Tighten the nuts slightly to stabilize the bracket.
