To install your storage engine in a two-post equipment rack as a mid-mount installation, complete the following steps, using the figure for reference.
Note
See the Easy Installation Instructions and the Telco Tray and Rail Kit Installation Instructions flyer for flush-mount installation instructions.
WARNING
The storage engine is extremely heavy. To avoid personal injury, three people are required to install the storage engine when both power supplies are installed. When you install disk shelves and a storage engine into a rack, you must install the equipment from the bottom up to ensure the greatest stability.
| 1 | Install a disk shelf tray to support the storage engine, as described in the accompanying kit flyer. |
|
| 2 | Unscrew the installation brackets from the side of the storage engine. |
|
| 3 | Set the mounting bracket to the furthest position back on the side of the storage engine and secure it to the side. |
|
| 4 | Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the other side of the storage engine. |
|
| 5 | Align the mounting brackets with the small brackets attached to the equipment rack, then carefully slide the storage engine into place. |
|
| 6 | Secure the storage engine to the two-post equipment rack by inserting the appropriate screws from the mounting kit through the mounting holes on each side of the bezel and into the front posts of the rack. |
|
| 7 |
If desired, apply the ear covers over the heads of the mounting screws by peeling the adhesive strip from the back of the ear covers and applying the ear covers to each mounting flange on the storage engine. |
