Attach the rails
NOTE: The left and right rails are designated by the letters R (right) and L (left) stamped into the
metal on the front of the rack.
Consider the following when installing the rails:
• Installing the rails does not require any tools for assembly.
• HP recommends you install all the rail kits before installing any other components.
• Ensure the rails are level before installing any other components.
WARNING! Before you begin, ensure that the rack is sufficiently stable. If provided, lower the
rack leveler feet and make sure any required stabilizers are installed. If provided, extend the anti-tip
device. Failure to extend the anti-tip device could cause personal injury or damage if the rack tips
over.
