bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product.
Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer’s instructions,
and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
9) A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart comb\
ina-
tion to overturn.
10) Ventilation — Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventila-
tion and to ensure reliable operation of the product  and to protect it \
from 
overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or  covered. The ope\
n-
ings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug,\
 or

company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instructions.
12) Grounding or Polarization  — This product may be equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider \
than
the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outl\
et, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your e\
lectrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the po\
larized

and the point where they exit from the product.
14) Outdoor Antenna Grounding  — If an outside antenna or cable system
is connected to the product, be  sure the antenna or cable system is gro\
unded
so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup\
port-
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time\
, 
unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable syste\
m.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line
surges.
16) Power Lines  — An outside antenna system should not be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circui\
ts, or
where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an \
outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such
power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

							Installing The MX-2424
When mounting MX-2424s on top of each other in a rack
the feet may be removed by unscrewing them.
To replace the feet:
1. Insert the fastener into the foot
2. Snap the fastener & foot back into the hole in the bottom of the MX-2\
424 chassis
3. Snap the screw into the fasteners hole
Multiple units can be mounted on top of each other when forced air rack \
ventilation is provided.
a one inch clearance is required on both sides of the MX-2424  (even in single-unit installations).
In facilities with raised computer-room style flooring, a ventilation op\
ening in the floor is recom-
mended.  In no case should the internal rack temperature ever exceed 100\
 degrees Fahrenheit
(43 degrees Centigrade) during operation (as measured at the rear of \
any MX-2424 in the system).
