Chapter 3 Installing the Switch
Installing the Stabilizer Kit
To install the stabilizer brackets, follow these steps:
Step 1 Have one person tilt and hold the chassis to one side.
Step 2 With the chassis tilted, attach the stabilizer bracket to the side of the chassis with the eight M4 screws,
as shown in Figure 3-10.
Step 3 Tilt the chassis to the other side.
Step 4 Attach the second stabilizer bracket to the other side of the chassis with eight M4 screws.
Step 5 Lower the chassis so that it rests on both stabilizer brackets.
Note If you are not rack-mounting the Catalyst 6513 switch and you want to install the cable guide assemblies,
you must obtain ten 12x24 or 10x32 nuts. Use the screws supplied in the accessory kit and the nuts you
obtained to attach the cable guide assembly to the L bracket.
