RACK MOUNTING THE HIGH CAPACITY HIVEMANAGER
Figure 3 Attaching the Chassis Rail to the HiveManager
3. Secure the other chassis rail to the other side of the HiveManager.
4. Use three slot-head screws to attach the rear mounting bracket to the outer slide. Insert the screws through the
rounded slots in the outer slide into the threaded holes in the bracket and tighten them as shown in Figure 4.

5. Use the remaining three slot-head screws to attach the other rear mounting bracket to the other outer slide.
6. Fasten the rear mounting brackets—and the slides attached to them—to the rear equipment rack rails.
Depending on the type of holes in the equipment rack, use one of the following methods:
For tapped (threaded) holes, use two screws to fasten the brackets directly to the rack rails. Use the
cross-head screws (with 10-32 threads) if they fit the holes in the rack.
For round holes, use the cross-head screws to fasten the brackets through the holes in the rack rails to the
bar nuts. You can use the locator pins to help keep the bar nuts aligned to the holes. See Figure 5.
