To assemble a cross member and extension bar, determine the desired
rack depth. Insert the small square tab of the rear member cross piece
into the correct square hole on the extension bar. Firmly push down on
the cross member so that the tab is inserted rmly into the extension
bar hole. Insert the push button rivet as shown.
Once the cross members and extension bars have been assembled,
the variable depth side rails can be mounted to the uprights (Please see
Detail A). Letters at each end of the assembly indicate top or bottom
installation, as well as which direction the assembly should be facing
(front or rear).

POWER AND GROUNDING OF ALL RACKS
When using PDUs, each PDU should be connected to a committed
branch circuit that is rated for the continuous load of all the equipment
connected. When not using a PDU, each piece of equipment should be
connected to a dedicated branch circuit.
PROTECTIVE EARTHING/GROUNDING
A main protective earthing stud is provided.
WARNING: To avoid injury to persons or loss of life, ground
rack individually to the dedicated branch circuit earthing ground.
CONNECTING MAIN PROTECTIVE EARTHING STUD TO THE
DEDICATED BRANCH CIRCUIT EARTHING GROUND CONDUCTOR
Connect the dedicated branch circuit earthing ground conductor to the
main protective earthing stud located on the support frame using a
listed ring or closed-loop terminal.
PARTS NOT BONDED TO PROTECTIVE EARTHING TERMINAL
The following parts are not effectively bonded to the protective earthing
terminal: Top and Bottom Inside Extension Bars - and Top and Bottom
Outside Cross Members on the VD4PM6-2436, VD4P1224-2436
and VD4PHD-2436 Racks and the Center Waterfall Bracket on the
CMR-45U and CMR-45U16. If these parts need to be bonded to the
protective earthing terminal, do so in accordance with Article 250 of the
National Electric Code.
Although equipment may physically t into a Great Lakes rack, with
or without brackets, customers must also review and comply with the
equipment manufacturer’s installation and other requirements. For
more information, please contact your Great Lakes representative or
call 1-866-TRY-GLCC.
When any equipment or accessory is installed in a Great Lakes product,
the installation procedures, recommendations and product warranty
requirements of the equipment manufacturer must be followed. Great
Lakes will not be responsible for any losses or claims arising from
a customer’s installation of electrical, electronic or other third party
products in any Great Lakes racks, unless caused solely by a written
conguration prepared by Great Lakes for that customer or by a
conguration provided by Great Lakes’ website, any conguration relies
on complete and accurate information from the customer.

RELATED ACCESSORIES AND PARTS
SPACER BRACKETS, VSBK6-8, VSBK9-14
Variable Spacer Bracket Kits are adjustable in one inch increments and
are required when installing a vertical cable manager or bafe between
two racks. Each kit contains 4 bracket assemblies. Before installation of
brackets, take into consideration if a vertical cable manager will also be
installed between the racks. The VSBK6-8 is used to space racks 6-8 ".
The VSBK9-14 is used to space racks 9-14" apart.
Tools: 7/16" x 7mm socket and wrench
1. Determine the required spacing needed between racks. Assemble
the brackets by inserting the square tab into the correct hole of the
opposite bracket; push the brackets together so that the tab is
inserted rmly. Secure the brackets with a push button rivet.
2. Attach top brackets to racks, as shown in Detail A.
FINGER TIGHTEN. If installing a bafe kit it is recommended that
the top rear spacer bracket be installed AFTER the bafe kit.
3. Attach bottom brackets to rack in the same manner, except omit
M4 x .7 20mm lg. bolt and hex nut. FINGER TIGHTEN
4. Tighten all hardware.

Tools: 3/8" socket and philips head screwdriver
Available bafe kits include:
4PBK24-36 84"H bafe kit for 4 Post Racks, variable depth of 24-36";
for use when racks are set from 24-36"
4PBK12 84"H bafe kit for CMR-45U, set at 12" deep
4PBK16 84"H bafe kit for CMR-45U16, set at 16.25" deep
1. Attach one side of the bafe to a rack or support frame by inserting
six, #12-24 x ½ lg. pan head screws (three screws in each hinge)
as shown in Detail A.
2. Loosen the three #10-32 hex nuts and adjust the bafe to t the
next rack, as shown in Detail B.
3. Attach the other side of the bafe to the next rack by inserting six,
#12-24 x ½ lg. pan head screws. Tighten the hex nuts.
OPTIONAL
4. Along the left and right edges of the bafes, install 1” brush to seal
the gap between the bafe and rack (install 3 pieces of brush on each
side of the bafe)
5. If using the laser knockouts, remove the knockout and secure
the brush to the edge, as shown in Detail C.

BAFFLE SUPPORT FRAME, 4PBSF24-36
Tools: philips head screwdriver
Use the Bafe Support Frame when a bafe is needed for an end-of-
row rack. Support frame is not recommended for the CMR-45U16, as
the frame has a variable depth from 24-36" and the CMR is only 16".
1. Determine the necessary depth of the variable brackets (normally
the same depth as the end-of-row rack). Set the brackets at the
required depth and secure together by using two #10-32 nuts and
washers.
2. Bolt the variable depth brackets to the vertical post, as shown in
Detail A.
3. The bafe support frame attaches to end-of row-rack with the
variable spacer bracket kit. See page 15 for installation.
