Removing and installing the outriggers (side stabilizers)
The outriggers are the stabilizers with wheels that are installed on the sides of the rack cabinet. After the rack is in its final location and will not be moved more than 2 m (6 ft.), you can remove the outriggers.
DANGER:
Always relocate the rack cabinet with the outriggers installed. Keep the outriggers and install them if you need to move the rack to another location in the future.
To remove the outriggers, use the 6 mm hex wrench that comes in the hardware kit to remove the four bolts that attach each outrigger to the rack cabinet. Keep the outriggers and bolts for future use if you need to move the rack.
- Before you attach an expansion rack to a standard rack or another expansion rack, you must remove the outriggers from the racks so that the racks fit together correctly.
- You can install or remove the outriggers on a rack cabinet with or without side covers.
Install the outriggers before you move the rack cabinet to another location. Use the 6 mm hex wrench that comes in the hardware kit to install the four bolts that attach each outrigger to the rack cabinet.
