Securing the Mid-Bracket to the Rail (7.25-Inch Mid-Mount)

1 = Four screws from extension rack assembly	3 = Rail ear square opening
2 = Mid-bracket	4 = Cage nut

To secure the mid-bracket, follow these steps:

1. Align the mid-bracket (callout 2) with the four rail slots
   See Securing the Mid-Bracket to the Rail (7.25-Inch Flush Mount) for a flush mount assembly.

   See Securing the Mid-Bracket to the Rail (7.25-Inch Mid-Mount) for a mid-mount assembly.

2. Insert and secure the four screws (callout 1) from the rack mount extension assembly, allowing some play to adjust the mid-bracket position within the slot space when securing the assembly to the rack post.
3. If the assembly will be used in a mid-mount configuration, insert a cage nut (callout 4 in Securing the Mid-Bracket to the Rail (7.25-Inch Mid-Mount)) into the rail ear square opening (callout 3).
   Two cage nuts are included with the SSA Universal Rack Mount kit.
4. Repeat these steps for the other rail.
