SUMMARY STEPS
1. Position the left door stopper (700-27454-01) on the middle of the left cable management frame and
fasten it with two M3x10 pan-head screws as shown in Figure 60: Attaching the Left Door Stopper, on
page 116. Tighten these two screws to 5 to 7 in-lb (0.6 to 0.8 N·m).
2. Position the right door stopper (700-27592-01) on the middle of the right side of the cable management
frame and fasten it with two M3x10 pan-head screws as shown in Figure 61: Attaching the Right Door
Stopper, on page 117. Tighten these two screws to 5 to 7 in-lb (0.6 to 0.8 N·m).
3. Position the hinge bracket (700-28491-01) at the bottom of the cable management frame and the chassis
as shown in Figure 62: Positioning the Hinge Bracket to the Cable Management Frame and Chassis, on
page 118.
4. Attach the bracket to the chassis with eight loosely fastened M4x8 screws, as shown in Figure 63:
Attaching the Hinge Bracket to the Cable Management Frame and Chassis, on page 119.
5. Tighten the four M4x8 screws that fasten the hinge bracket to the chassis to 11 to 15 in-lb (1.2 to 1.7
N·m).
6. Tighten the four M4x8 screws that fasten the hinge bracket to the cable management frame to 11 to 15
in-lb (1.2 to 1.7 N·m).
7. Fasten the four ball-point studs (51-5008-01), each one with a washer (49-0430-01), to the bottom
portion of the chassis, one stud by each corner of the air intake area as shown in Figure 64: Fastening
Ball-Point Studs to the Air Intake Area, on page 120.
8. Align the air intake frame to the four ball-point studs and press the frame onto the chassis as shown in
Figure 65: Positioning the Air Intake Frame on the Chassis, on page 121. The captive screws on the
air-intake frame should align with their screw holes in the chassis.
9. Fasten the captive screws on the air-intake frame to the chassis and tighten to 11 to 15 in-lb (95 to 130
N·m).
10. On the chassis door, pull the door handle open on one of the two sides of the door until the handle clicks
(the handle clicks when you pull it about 30 degrees).
11. Move the side of the door with the opened handle onto the two hinge pins as shown in Figure 66:
Attaching One Side of the Door to the Chassis, on page 122. Make sure that the top and bottom hinge
pins on the hood and hinge bracket fit through the slots on the top and bottom of that side of the door.
Position the door so that the hinge pins are located at the ends of the slots.
12. While holding the door on the hinge pins with one hand, use your other hand to press the locking button
on the interior side of the door. See Figure 67: Attaching the Left Side of the Door, on page 123. This
action locks the latches around the hinge pins so that you no longer need to hold the door onto the
chassis.
13. Open the door handle on the open side of the door until it clicks. This action opens the latches on the
open side of the door. See Figure 68: Attaching the Right Side of the Door, on page 124.
14. Swing the door closed so that the unused hinge pins fit inside the slots on the top and bottom of the
door. When you close the door, the door stopper automatically presses the lock button on the inside of
the door so that the door is locked on the hinge pins. If the door stopper does not close the latches, press
the door closed at the handle until you hear the latches click. Make sure that the door is fully secured
to the frames on both sides.

Step 1 Position the left door stopper (700-27454-01) on the middle of the left cable management frame and fasten it with two
M3x10 pan-head screws as shown in Figure 60: Attaching the Left Door Stopper, on page 116. Tighten these two screws
to 5 to 7 in-lb (0.6 to 0.8 N·m).
