Lifting the SRX3600 Services Gateway Chassis into the Rack
Lifting the chassis and mounting it in a rack
requires two people. The empty chassis weighs approximately 43.6 lb
(19.8 kg).
- Ensure the rack is in its permanent location
and is secured to the building.
- Position the chassis in front of the rack or cabinet.
Use a pallet jack if one is available.
- With one person on each side, lift the chassis
into position in the rack:
- For two-post rack mounting, align the bottom hole in each
mounting bracket with a hole in each rack rail.
- For four-post rack or cabinet mounting, position the services
gateway so that the bottom rear edge of the chassis rests on the support
shelf you installed earlier, as described in Installing the Mounting Hardware for the SRX3600 Services Gateway.
 | Warning:
Do not attempt to lift the chassis by the handles on
the power supplies or on the common form-factor modules (CFMs). The
handles may break off causing the chassis to fall and inflict injury. |

- Use the screws to attach the left and right brackets to the
rack.
- Visually inspect the alignment of the chassis.
If the chassis is installed properly in the rack, all the mounting
screws on one side of the rack should be aligned with the mounting
screws on the opposite side and the chassis should be level.
