If they are not already locked in the extended position, pull the 
intermediate slides toward the front (out of the rack) so that they lock in 
the extended position.
Caution:
The disk drives for the REO Appliance are located in the front
of the unit. The result being the majority of weight is distributed to the 
front of the REO Appliance. This next step should be performed by at 
least two people, or by using a mechanical lift. Make certain that when 
the REO Appliance is fully extended that a force of 20% of the rack’s 
weight, but not more than lb. (Kg), applied in any direction other than 
upwards, does not cause the rack to overbalance.
