For each PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis that you install in a rack, you must provide four standard #12-24
pan-head screws with which to mount and secure the chassis. Before performing this task, you should have an
assembled rack and a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
Removing shipping screws from the 4-slot and 8-slot chassis
The PowerConnect B-MLXe Series 4-slot and 8-slot units ship with two screws installed in the right side of the
chassis. These screws secure the fan tray and protect it from damage during shipment. You must remove these
screws before installing the router.
NOTE
You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver to remove these screws.
