Rack Mounting
• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the
fl oor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the fl oor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single
rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
• Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack fi rst.
• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a device from the rack.
• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load
should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
• Ensure that proper airfl ow is provided to devices in the rack.
• Do not step on or stand on any device when servicing other devices in a rack.
