- Identify Rack Space: Locate an available 0.5U space within your 10-inch server rack where you wish to install the brush panel.
- Position Panel: Align the mounting holes on the brush panel with the corresponding holes on your server rack rails.
- Secure Panel: Use the provided 10-32 mounting screws and nuts to firmly attach the brush panel to the rack rails. Ensure the panel is level and securely fastened.

4. Operating Instructions
Once installed, the Tecmojo 0.5U Cable Management Brush Panel is ready for use:
- Cable Routing: Gently push your network, power, or other cables through the dense nylon brush opening. The brushes will conform around the cables, holding them in place and preventing them from falling back through.
- Maintain Airflow: The brush design allows for cables to pass through while minimizing open space, which helps maintain proper airflow within the rack and reduces hot spots.
- Dust Protection: The dense brushes act as a barrier, significantly reducing the amount of dust and debris that can enter your server rack, protecting sensitive equipment.

5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and continued performance of your Tecmojo Cable Management Brush Panel, periodic maintenance is recommended:
- Cleaning: Occasionally, use a soft, dry cloth or a small brush to gently remove any accumulated dust or debris from the nylon bristles and the metal panel surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain tight. Inspect the brush bristles for any signs of wear or damage. While the steel construction is durable, ensure no physical damage has occurred.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Tecmojo Cable Management Brush Panel, consider the following:
- Panel Does Not Fit: Ensure your server rack is a standard 10-inch size. This panel is specifically designed for 10-inch racks and will not fit 19-inch racks. Refer to your rack's specifications.
- Cables Snagging: When routing cables, ensure they are pushed through the brush opening smoothly. Avoid forcing multiple large cables through a single small section of the brush. Distribute cables evenly.
- Loose Panel: Re-tighten the 10-32 mounting screws and nuts. Ensure they are properly seated in the rack rails.
