Installation
1. Make sure that the front and rear frames are right side up. The
bottom of the frame has holes for the oor mounting brackets
and casters. Make sure that the pictured end is at the bottom.
2. Attach the oor mounting brackets (the L-shaped brackets) to the
bottom of the frames. Using the included hex key, install the hex
socket screws. Install 4 screws per bracket.

3. Attach the arms to the frames. Separate your arms into pairs
(consisting of one wide and one narrow arm per pair).You will
have six pairs of arms, three for each side of the rack. The narrow
arms that connect the bottom of the frames can be identied by
the pre-mounted cage nuts on the inside of the arms.
NOTE: When installing the arms, it might be easiest to start with the
top arms for stability reasons.
For the top and middle arms, snap the cage nuts into the back
(inside) of the narrow arms. It is recommended that you install
several cage nuts on each arm. The cage nuts are easier to install
when the rack is not fully assembled. You should install more cage
nuts than may be necessary in case you change the depth of the rack
in the future.

Determine the desired depth of your rack. Using two screws, attach
one of the arms to the holes on the inside of the frame. Attach
the other arm to the other side of the frame, making sure that the
wider arm is on the outside of the narrow arm. Secure the two arms
together using the provided screws.
NOTE: For stability, StarTech.com recommends that you have use at
least two screws to secure the rack arms.
4. Place the oor plates over the bottom of the rack. One oor plate
has only one “ap” along the side.You can overlap this oor plate
over the other when necessary. Secure the oor plates to the rack
from the top.
Note: When adjusting the depth, please note that the maximum depth
that allows the Floor Plates to be bolted down is 29.9in (76cm). You can go
beyond this depth safely up to 39.3in (100cm) however it will no longer be
possible to secure the oor panels to the rack frame using the bolts. This
will have no eect on the rack’s weight capacity.
5. Secure the completed rack. Bolt the assembled rack into the
ground or install the casters (StarTech.com ID: 4POSTCASTER). If
you are bolting the rack, the type of bolt you use will depend on
the oor material.
6. Install your rackmount equipment. Using the rackmount cabinet
screws and cage nuts, install your rackmount equipment into the rack.
