Install the single or dual rack slide sets as follows:

Step

Task

1

Typical for either side of the CPA chassis, install the “chassis section” of the rack slide to the CPA chassis side, using the pan head machine screws

provided with the rack slide installation kit.

2

Typical for either side of the rack cabinet: using the mounting hardware provided with the rack slide installation kit, install the “stationary section” of

the rack slide, either to the interior wall of the cabinet (for single rail rack slides) or, for the heavy-duty rack slides, to the front and rear mounting

rails of the cabinet as shown in Figure 2-2.

3

Install the CPA unit into position by mating the chassis-mounted rails into the cabinet-mounted stationary portion of the rack slide. Be sure that the ball

retainer for either slide has first been positioned forward before installing the chassis section.

You may leave the unit free in place (to slide on the rails freely) or, alternately, bolt the unit into place via the slotted front panel mounting holes.
