1. Move the chassis to the rack using a mechanical lift (Figure 11: Lifting the Chassis).
Note: If modules are inserted in the chassis, use the lift carefully to avoid damaging any
components.
2. Lift the chassis and insert it into the rack. For the DCS-7816 chassis, remove the lifting brackets
required to lift the chassis from the pallet onto a transport lift, from the top of the chassis before
insertion.
Note: A platform lift is recommended for transportation and installation.
Note: Rack space permitting, it is recommended to leave the lifting brackets attached to the
switch after securing it in the rack.

3. Secure the chassis by tightening additional M6 screws on the front flanges into the rack posts
(Figure 12: Secure the Switch to the Rack Shelf).
Note: Additional screws depend on the device. The 7804 and 7808 chassis require nine.
