Note: For HP rack system/e and AlphaServer H9A rack enclosures, refer to the
appropriate rack rail adapter kit.
2. Remove the template and then attach the rails using the supplied fasteners (see
Figure 12). The front rail brackets are threaded to directly accept screws. The
rear brackets are not threaded and require cage/clip nuts in the rack enclosure
rear vertical rails.
Note: Refer to the Compaq Rack Products Reference Guide for detailed cage nut
installation instructions on 7000/9000/10000 racks.
Note: Fully tighten the front rail screws. Leave the rear rail screws “finger tight” to
prevent binding when mounting the library.
a. Fully extend the slide rails 1 on both sides of the rack enclosure until they
lock.
b. Slide the inner guide rail 2 as far as possible to the front of the rail
assembly.
