front of the server slowly pull the server out and push it back in.
(11) Tighten the four captive thumbscrews to secure the server to the rack.
Note sufficiently that your fingers may not be caught between a
rail and other mechanical partsor cut by a rail at installation or
removal of the server from the rack.
?
Do not connect any cables before attaching the cable arm.
?

(3) When the distance is from 700mm to 742mm, use the arm support (1) to adjust the
position of cable arm.
(4) When the distance is from 745mm to 900mm, use the arm support (2) to adjust the
position of cable arm..
(5) Align the small holes in the cable arm and the arm bracket, and then fix the cable arm
with two screws (D) to the arm bracket that fixed in step (1).

applied to the cable arm by rotating it.
(7) Attach cables to the server according to the manual of the server.
(8) Bundle cables to the cable arm by the repeat ties.
?
Attach cablesand repeat ties not to contact the slide railsand neighboring units and
the rack.
?
Tie cables slackly between the cable arm and the server to avoid of excess force to
be added by pulling out the server and pushing it back in.
?
Attach cables to avoid of excess force to the plug of power cords.

(9) Check to see that no excess force is applied to cables by pulling out the server and
pushing it back in. And this cable arm is rotated to backside for connection of cables
and exchange of the power supply unit. Check to see that no excess force is applied to
cables by rotating it. If the excess force is applied to cables, tie again cables more
slackly and check to see that no excess force is applied to cables and check the cable
does not touch slide rails, neighboring units, and therack.
(10) Fix the arm stopper with a screw (D) to the cable arm.
