Center-Mount Installation

The two-post rack kit is shipped with the brackets configured for center-mount installation.
To complete the installation, perform the following steps:

1

Locate the right slide assembly and push the back bracket toward the back of the slide

assembly (see Figure 1-4).

2

Position the right slide assembly in the two-post rack at the location you marked, push

the back bracket forward against the vertical two-post rack, secure the front center-

mounting bracket with two 12-24 x 0.5-inch pan-head Phillips screws, and secure the

back center-mounting bracket to the rack with three 12-24 x 0.5-inch pan-head

Phillips screws (see Figure 1-4).

3

Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the left slide assembly in the rack.

4

Install the stiffening bracket into the appropriate holes at the back of the slide

assemblies and secure the bracket with a 12-24 0.5-inch pan-head Phillips screw on

each slide assembly (see Figure 1-4).
If the vertical rack is 3 inches wide, use the holes at the back end of the slide

assemblies (shown in Figure 1-4). If the vertical rack is 6 inches wide, use the holes

located 3 inches in front of the holes at the back end of the slide assemblies.
