Flush-Mount Installation

The two-post rack kit is shipped with the brackets configured for center-mount installation.
To prepare the slide assemblies for flush-mount installation in the two-post rack, perform
the following steps:
Locate the two slide assemblies and place them, side by side, on a smooth work
1
surface, with the front ends of the slide assemblies toward you. Position both slide
assemblies so that the center brackets are facing upward (see Figure 1-16).
Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver and an 11/32-inch wrench or nut driver, remove two
2
12-24 x 0.5-inch pan-head Phillips screws, two nuts, and two shoulder washers from
each front center bracket (see Figure 1-16).
Remove the front bracket from both slide assemblies.
3
Place the bracket from one slide assembly onto the threaded studs on the opposite
4
slide assembly, with the bracket turned 180 degrees so that the mounting flange faces
forward (see Figure 1-16).
Secure each front center-mount bracket (by its nuts and shoulder washers) by finger-
5
tightening them on their opposite slide assemblies using the two shoulder washers and
two nuts you removed in step 2 (see Figure 1-16).
The joined bracket becomes the new extended back bracket.
