Overview of Installing the SRX5800 Services Gateway Without a Mechanical Lift

If you cannot use a mechanical lift to install the services gateway (the preferred method), you can install it manually. Before installing the services gateway manually, you must first remove components from the chassis, and you must reinstall the components once the services gateway is installed in the rack. At least three people are needed to safely lift the chassis into the rack or cabinet. With components removed, the chassis weighs approximately 150 lb (60.4 kg).

Before installing the services gateway in the rack, read the safety information in Chassis Lifting Guidelines. Remove the services gateway from the shipping container as described in Unpacking the SRX5800 Services Gateway . Install the mounting hardware as described in Installing the SRX5800 Services Gateway Mounting Hardware for a Four-Post Rack or Cabinet, Installing the SRX5800 Services Gateway Mounting Hardware for Front-Mounting in an Open-Frame Rack, or Installing the SRX5800 Services Gateway Mounting Hardware for Center-Mounting in an Open-Frame Rack.
