Installation
The next figure provides an exploded view of the rack mounting kit, the instrument, and the rack face.
Step-by-step assembly and mounting instructions are given below.
Before installing the instrument in the rack, be sure that the rack angle bracket or shelf is in place and
adjusted to accept and support the instrument. Under no circumstances should the instrument's entire
weight be supported solely by the hardware and brackets supplied in the mounting kit.
1. Mount handles (1) to both rack ears (4 and 5) securing each handle with two flat head screws (3).
2. Determine which side of the rack (left or right) will contain the instrument.
3. Install the instrument side rack ear (4) to the instrument and secure with two truss head screws that were
removed from the instrument (2). The next figure shows the instrument is mounted on the left side of the rack.
When you remove the truss head screws to install the rack ears, you will need to re-use the screws to
secure the rack ears on the outside edge of each instrument.
4. Install the blank side rack ear (5) and secure with two truss head screws that were removed from the
instrument (2).
5. Install assembly (instrument and installed rack ears) in the rack. Secure the assembly with existing hardware
(see the next figures).
