This manual contains important instructions that must be followed during 
installation, operation, and maintenance of the equipment.
Use caution when moving an empty enclosure on its casters; the enclosure may be unstable when pushed or 
pulled from the side. Push the enclosure from the front or back when moving it on its casters. For extra 
stability, load 158 kg (350 lbs) of equipment into the bottom of the enclosure before moving it on its casters.
Moving the enclosure
Casters. 
The total load on the casters may not exceed 450 kg (992 lbs). See the enclosure 
The front wheels have 360 degree rotation for maneuverability. Rear wheels have front-to-back motion 
for stability. Push the enclosure from the front or the back, not the sides; it may be unstable when pushed 
from the side. For greater stability, load 159 kg (350 lbs) or more of equipment into the enclosure before 
moving it on its casters.

WARNING
TIPPING HAZARD
• Stabilize the enclosure before installing the components. 
• Do not extend components on sliding rails out from the enclosure until you have installed 
three or more pieces of similar equipment, or the stabilizer plate or bolt-down brackets are 
installed.
• Do not extend more than one component from the enclosure at a time.
• Load the heaviest components first, and place them toward the bottom of the enclosure 
to prevent the enclosure from becoming top-heavy.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or 
equipment damage.
 NOTICE
To ensure adequate air movement, place the side of the enclosure no closer than six to 
eight inches to the wall.
