• Make sure the position of the UNS does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all
necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.

A slide rail consists of an inner rail and an outer rail. Release the lock (1) and slide out out the inner
rail completely to separate the rails.
1.2.3 Connect the Inner Rail to the UNS
1 Connect the inner rail to the UNS by latching it onto the screws on the UNS body.
2 Repeat this procedure for the other inner rail on the other side of the UNS.
1.2.4 Connect the Outer Rail to the Rack
Find a space in the rack that is 2U high. The space between two triangles is 1U high.
1 Adjust the length of the outer slide rail to the depth of the rack. The front of the outer rail can slide
out. This is the side that should be at the front of the rack.
