- Read General Safety Guidelines and Warnings for EX Series Switches, with particular attention to Chassis Lifting Guidelines for EX2200 Switches.
- Remove the switch from the shipping carton (see Unpacking an EX2200 Switch).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
- Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
- 4 rubber feet to stabilize the chassis on the a desk or other level surface (provided in the accessory compartment in the switch carton)

- Turn the chassis upside down on the desk or the level surface where you intend to mount the switch.
- Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the chassis, as shown in Figure 1.
- Turn the chassis right side up on the desk or the level surface.
