Have to replace Fortigate-300D in challenging position in rack. Defective unit is mounted with the ear brackets. Need to verify/confirm the screw size and bracket dimensions/length. Will need to use right angle rachet screwdriver to get unit out and need to confirm bit size. And/or - anyone have mechanical drawing of Fortigate 300D that might detail screw size. Much appreciated. Did check Fortigate300D install guide but it just has generic pix of bracket and screws but no specifics.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I was referring to the screws that secure the ears to the switch/Fortigate fw.
Thanks for the reply
Are you talking about the screws that are used to secure the ears to the rack or the ears to the switch?
In most cases rack bolts are Phillips #2 but the rack bolts are not standard and depends on what you are using in your environment. For the rack ears the screws are Phillips #2 as well (possibly #1 so bring both just in case).
