A mounting bracket (16) has a mounting pin (24) for fitting round hole racks (18) and a mounting sleeve (26) which slidably extends over the mounting pin (24) for fitting square hole racks (12). A lock pin (28) and a lock sleeve (30) are spaced apart from the mounting pin (24) and slidably extend for fitting within holes of respective racks (18, 12) to prevent removal of the mounting pin (24) and the mounting sleeve (26) from the racks (18, 12). A safety lock (180) is located adjacent the lock pin (28) for preventing removal of the lock pin (28) from a rack mounting hole, which prevents removal of the mounting bracket (16) from the racks (12, 18). A release pin (182) extends through a rack mounting hole and the mounting bracket (16) for moving the safety lock (180) to a position located aside of the lock pin (28).
