Keep the cover of the enclosure level and support it from the center as you slide it into the
rack at the desired position.

Important

Work with someone else to make sure the cover is supported and square to the

rack. The cover must be installed level to avoid changing its shape before the screws are
inserted to hold it in place.

Have someone support the
cover in the center while you
attach it to the rack.
