Attaching the front brackets

About this task

Complete the following steps to attach the front brackets to the device.

Note: Pay particular attention to the labeling on the brackets.

Refer the following figure. There are four pairs of vertically aligned holes in the brackets. Each pair is labeled with a letter as are a number of single holes along the length of the bracket. Each letter corresponds to a specific device's mounting holes.

For the SAN24B-6 use the holes marked with the letter ‘A’.

Note: Example illustrations in the following procedures may show the screws inserted in holes designated for devices other than the device that you are installing. Be sure to use holes designed for installing your device.

Procedure

  1. Position the right front bracket with the flat side against the right side of the device as shown in the following figure. Be sure that the arrowhead is pointing upward when mounted.
  2. Insert two 8-32 x 5/16-in. screws into one of the pairs of vertically aligned holes in the bracket and then into the pair of holes on the side of the device.
  3. Insert each of three additional 8-32 x 5/16-in. screws through the holes in the bracket and into the corresponding holes in the device as shown in the following figure. Be sure to use holes with the same label. Tighten all 8-32 x 5/16-in. screws to a torque of 15 in-lb (17 cm-kg).
  4. Repeat step 1 through step 3 to attach the left front bracket to the left side of the device. Again, be sure that the arrowhead is pointing upward when mounted and that you are using the holes with the same labels as you used on the right side.
