To Install the Slide Rails

1. Determine which rack hole numbers you will use when attaching the slide rails to

the rack posts.

Most racks have posts that are marked off by rack units (1.75 in. or 45 mm). The
server occupies one rack unit.

2. Determine which screws you will use to mount the slide rails.

If your rack has threaded mounting holes in the rack posts, determine whether
the threads are metric or standard. Select the appropriate screws from the package
included in the mounting kit.

If your rack does not have threaded mounting holes, the mounting screws go
through bracket and rack post, and are secured with a caged nut. Select the
appropriate screws and nuts from the package included in the mounting kit.

3. Loosen the two captive screws (

FIGURE 2-4

) approximately a quarter-turn on each

slide rail.

This action allows movement of the rear section so that you can adjust the length of
each slide rail.
