Rack Considerations
Before beginning these procedures, make sure you understand
and adhere to the following precautions.
!WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or
damage to the equipment, be sure that:
n The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
n The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling
jacks.
n The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is
a single rack installation.

tray. Use the 2U template to mark the attachment points for the
mounting brackets and cage nuts on the front and rear of the
rack frame.
Be sure to mark the rack at the top of the template to help align
the next component.
