Rack Stabilizer Feet

WARNING:

Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers

on stand-alone racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks.
Failure to install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack
could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain
circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing
components in the rack.

WARNING:

After installing systems in a rack, never pull more than one system

out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one
extended system could cause the rack to tip over and cause injury.

The stabilizer feet help prevent the rack from tipping over when a system
or other component is pulled out of the rack with the slide assemblies
fully extended.
