1.4.3 Attaching the Slide-Rail Assemblies to the Rack

Use this procedure to install the slide-rail assemblies to the rack.

1. Position a slide-rail assembly in your rack so that the brackets at each end of the

slide-rail assembly are on the outside of the front and rear rack posts. See

FIGURE 1-4.

2. Attach the slide-rail assembly to the rack posts.

The method used to attach the slide-rails varies depending on the type of rack:

■ If your rack has threaded mounting holes in the rack posts, first determine

whether the threads are metric or standard, and then insert the correct mounting

screws through the slide-rail brackets and into the threaded holes.

■ If your rack does not have threaded mounting holes, insert the mounting screws

through both the slide-rail brackets and rack posts, and then secure them with the

caged nuts.
