Figure 6: Load the MX960 Router onto the Lift
3. Using the lift, position the router in front of the rack or cabinet, centering it in front of
the mounting shelves.
4. Lift the chassis approximately 0.75 in. above the surface of the mounting shelves, and
position it as close as possible to the shelves.
5. Carefully slide the router onto the mounting shelves so that the bottom of the chassis
and the mounting shelves overlap by approximately 2 inches.
6. Slide the router onto the mounting shelves until the mounting brackets or
front-mounting flanges contact the rack rails. The shelves ensure that the holes in
the mounting brackets and the front-mounting flanges of the chassis align with the
holes in the rack rails.
7. Move the lift away from the rack.
8. To install the router in an open-frame rack, install a mounting screw into each of the
open mounting holes aligned with the rack, starting from the bottom.
9. Visually inspect the alignment of the router. If the router is installed properly in the
rack, all the mounting screws on one side of the rack should be aligned with the
mounting screws on the opposite side and the router should be level.
