Installing the System in the Rack
CAUTION:
If you are installing more than one system, install the first system in the lowest available position
in the rack.
1 Place one hand on the front-bottom of the system and the other hand on the back-bottom of the
system.
2 Lift the system into position so that the side rails at the back of the system are aligned with the
mounting rails in the rack.
CAUTION:
Because of the size and weight of the system, never attempt to install the system in the mounting rails
by yourself.
3 Push the system into the mounting rails until the system stops.
4 Push in and turn the thumbscrews on each side of the front chassis panel to secure the system to the
rack.
Removing the System From the Rack
To remove the system from the rack, perform the following procedure:
1 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.
2 Loosen the thumbscrews on each side of the front chassis panel that secures the system to the rack.
3 Disconnect all cables from the system.
4 Pull the system out of the rack until it stops because of the release latches.
5 Push down on the release latches on each side of the system (see Figure 1-10).
6 Pull the system completely out of the rack.
