Install Shipping Brackets

1. Unpack the following items from the shipping bracket kit:

   • Four shipping brackets

   • Four 18 mm M6 screws

   • Eight 14 mm M6 screws

   
   
2. From the front of the system, remove the bottom four screws that fasten the chassis to the rack.
   
3. Place the front support bracket into the lower front of the chassis so that the bottom edge of the bracket fits under the chassis and the front of the bracket is flush with the chassis.
   
4. Fasten the front shipping bracket with four 18 mm M6 screws.

   Note - Save these screws. You use them later when you fasten the chassis to the rack.

5. Attach the lower rear bracket so that the lower edge slides under the bottom of the chassis and the middle holes on each side of the bracket fit over the screws protruding from the rack.
   
6. Fasten the rear lower bracket to the rack using four 14 mm M6 screws.
   
7. (If necessary) Fasten the two upper rear brackets to the rack using four 14 mm M6 screws.

   ---

   Note - These brackets are installed when the chassis is installed into the rack. Therefore, you might not need to install the brackets now. Permanent installation of these two brackets is required for seismic bracing. If these brackets are not installed, install them now.

   Place the screws in the two outside holes of the bracket. Leave the middle hole empty.
