4. Carefully lay the CPU on its side
on a soft protective surface. Lay
the upper side panel onto the side
of the CPU. Lay the lower side
panel into the upper side panel to
fit the height of the CPU as tight
as possible. Tighten the side pan-
els together with two 1⁄4-20 acorn
nuts onto the studs. Repeat the
above procedure for the other pair
of side panels (Figure 2).
5. Have an accurate measurement
of the height of the CPU. Lay the
lower side panel onto the upper
side panel as illustrated. The
studs on the upper side panel
should go through the slots in
the lower side panel at or slightly
more than the measured height of
the CPU. Tighten the side panels
together with two 1⁄4-20 acorn nuts
onto the studs. Repeat step five
for the other pair of side panels
(Figure 2).
6. Position the assembled side
panels up into the slotted bracket.
Space the side panels to the
approximate width of the CPU and
finger tighten the four 1⁄4-20 nuts
and washers to hold the brackets
in place (Figure 3).
Note: If your installation does
not include placement of the CPU
into the holder at this time, follow
steps 7 through 10 using an
accurate measurement of the
width of the CPU. When the CPU
is installed, final adjustments and
tightening of hardware must be
done, closely following steps 7
through 10.
7. Choose the appropriate 7⁄16"
carriage bolt (4", 7" or 10") for
the CPU width. Insert the bolt
through the holes in the bottom
tabs of the side panels. Place a
washer and lock washer onto the
bolt. Screw the nut on just enough
to secure the side panels together.
Take the remaining two carriage
bolts and slide them into the
storage holes in the side of the
slotted bracket (Figure 3).
Assemble units as described herein only. To do otherwise
may result in instability. All screws, nuts and bolts must be
tightened securely and must be checked periodically after
assembly. Failure to assemble properly, or to secure parts
may result in assembly failure and injury.
