This system weighs approximately 190 pounds (86 kilograms) when fully loaded with components. We
Caution
recommend that you use a mechanical lift when lifting the system. Attempting this procedure without a
lift could result in personal injury or equipment damage. Although not required, consider temporarily
removing components such as hard drives while you move the system.
The rack rail channels are fragile to side loads. Install the chassis gently to avoid damaging the rails.
Note
Align the rear ends of the inner rails that are attached to the chassis sides with the front ends of the
a.
empty intermediate rails on the rack.
Ensure that the inner rails on the chassis are parallel with the intermediate rails on the rack. This could

require adjusting the mechanical lift position up-down and left-to-right. Consider using shims if your lift
does not support these motions. The ends of the inner rail must align up-down and side-to-side with the
ends of the intermediate rails.
Very slowly push the chassis toward the rack. Ensure that the rail ends mesh to each other and are

rack until its front handle slam-latches engage with the rack posts (see
Ensure that both inner rail release clips are pushed in before pushing the chassis into the rack. Push the
