■ The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
■ The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack, if it is a single-
rack installation.
■ The racks are coupled in multiple-rack installations.
■■
■ Only one component is extended at a time. (A rack may
■■
become unstable if more than one component is extended for
any reason.)
