Mounting the Chassis
Mid Mount
Step 1
On the side of the chassis, use a Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the twelve flathead screws that secure the mounting
bracket to the chassis.
Step 2
Place the mounting bracket over the middle set of mounting holes on the side of the chassis and secure it to the chassis
with the screws you removed in step 1.
Step 3
Repeat step 1 and step 2 and reposition the bracket on the opposite side of the chassis.
Step 4
Position the chassis in the equipment rack so that the flanges of the mounting brackets are flush with the mounting rails
of the equipment rack.
Step 5
Mount the chassis to the rack rails using the OEM hardware that was supplied with the equipment rack. Begin with the
two bottom holes and work your way up until all holes on each flange are secured.
Step 6
