Procedure
To install an enclosure, complete the following steps.
1. On either side of the drive assemblies, remove the enclosure end caps by
grasping the handle and pulling the bottom of the end cap free, then clearing
the tab on the top of the enclosure. (See Figure 16.)
2. Align the enclosure with the front of the rack cabinet.
3. Carefully slide the enclosure into the rack along the rails until the enclosure is
fully inserted (see Figure 17 on page 23).
Note: The rails are not designed to hold an enclosure that is partially inserted.
The enclosure must always be in a fully inserted position.
