1. Determine the position of each chassis in the rack.
2. Position two of the four mounting screws for each chassis that you plan to mount in the rack
according to the spacings of the keyhole slots on the brackets (as shown in Figure 28). Do not
secure the screws completely; leave approximately 1/4 inch of clearance between the back of
the screw head and the rack.

3. Start by mounting the chassis that goes in the lowest position in the rack, as shown in
Figure 29. With two or more people lifting the chassis, slip the wide portion of each keyhole
slot over the corresponding screw in the rack.
