Installation guide
Installing an Expander Cabinet 3-25
1. Locate the three end panel mounting brackets and associated screws
you removed from the side of the system cabinet in Section 3.5.
2. Attach the three brackets to the expander cabinet frame exactly as
they appeared on the system cabinet frame. That is, the wide bracket
is at the top, and the other two are at the middle and bottom of the
frame. Each bracket has a "lower lip" which should be facing upward
to properly engage the end panel in the next step. Align the holes in
each bracket with the corresponding threaded inserts in the frame.
Then attach each bracket to the frame with two screws as illustrated
in Figure 3-12.
3. Locate the end panel and its two associated 40 mm (1.6 in) long bolts
and washers you removed from the system cabinet in Section 3.5.
4. Position the end panel so that it is centered with respect to the front
and back of the cabinet assembly.
5. Lift the end panel and lower it while doing the following three things
simultaneously:
a. Engage the tabs of the top bracket with the corresponding holes in
the end panel;
b. Engage the lip of the middle bracket with the corresponding groove
in the end panel; and
c. Engage the lip of the lower bracket with the corresponding groove
in the end panel. When properly installed, the end panel should be
tight and flush against the cabinet frame.
6. Insert the two bolts with washers from the inside of the frame through
the holes in the cabinet frame and into the matching threaded inserts
in the end panel.
7. Carefully tighten the bolts with a 10 mm hex socket wrench, prefer-
ably a torque wrench. Recommended maximum torque is 20 in-lbs.
Do not overtighten the bolts or bumps on the end panel exterior will
appear.
8. Repeat 1 through 7 for the other side of the cabinet assembly if an ex-
pander cabinet is installed.
