4.3 Changing the Position of the Door Rotation Axis
The position of the door rotation axis can be changed from the position at shipment. At the time of
shipment, the front door turns on the right axis. The rear door on a 600-mm-wide rack turns on the
left axis. The rear door on a 700-mm-wide rack is a double door, so the positions of its rotation axes
cannot be changed.
Changing the position of the rotation axis involves the repetitive action of removing parts and
reinstalling them at different locations. Work carefully to avoid causing deformation, breakage, or
loss of parts during the removal and reinstallation of parts.
Removed parts are all reused. No excess parts should be left over. Note that the
rack is supplied with no spare parts. Removing and installing some parts will
require certain degrees of strength. Work carefully.
The tools required for the following operations include a Phillips screwdriver (No. 2 and No. 3 bits),
torque driver (No. 2 bit, but not absolute necessary), cage nut tool, hexagon wrench (socket sizes 3
and 4), and box wrench (socket size 7). The box wrench is required only for work on the rear door.
4.3.1 Changing the position of the rotation axis of the front door
1 Remove the front door from the rack.
Open the door by 90 degrees. Lift up the door to remove the door-side hinges (pins) from the
rack-side hinges, and then slide the door sideways to remove it.
Note: When installing or removing the door, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the
gap between the door and the rack.
The front door may be hard to remove by sliding it sideways because the notches for
the hinges on the door are bent to control the opening and closing angle.
