Important Safety Information
Observe the safety precautions in the following subsections when installing your system in the rack.
CAUTION:
You must strictly follow the procedures in this document to protect yourself as well as
others who may be involved. Your system may be very large and heavy, and proper preparation and
planning are important to prevent injury to yourself and to others. This becomes increasingly important
when systems are installed high up in the rack.
Rack Stabilizer Feet
CAUTION:
Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizer feet installed could cause
the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore,
always install the stabilizer feet before installing components in the rack.
CAUTION:
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. See the documentation provided
with the rack cabinet for instructions on installing and anchoring the stabilizer feet.
Installing the Tower-to-Rack Kit

The system may weigh up to 49 kilograms (108 pounds) when fully loaded. To prevent
