Secure the router to the rack
6. Remove the strap securing the router to the mechanical lift.
7. With two people in front and two people in back, slide the router into the rack.
8. For a mid-mount, remove the factory-installed mounting brackets from the front edges of the
device. Re-attach the mounting brackets to the center sides of the device using the pre-drilled
holes in the device. For a front-mount, use the brackets as they were installed at the factory.
9. If you are installing the router in a standard rack, install a mounting screw and a cage nut into
each of the holes on the rack posts aligned with the threaded holes in the spacer bars.
NOTE
When connecting the chassis to the rack frame, use thread-forming screws and paint-piercing
washers.
