While pushing down pull the hose from the connector.
It is important to remove the length of hose which had been inserted
into a connector before connecting the hose again. It must not be
scratched to secure a perfect sealing of the connector.
Now a few remarks about our hose. The hose we use is made of poly-
urethane. It has an outer diameter of 8 mm and an inner diameter of 6
mm. It makes bending radiuses of less than 10 cm possible and is resist-
ant against many chemicals. A great advantage of the system is that it
seals the hose on the outside. This allows the use of the complete dia-
meter, unlike the use of hose barbs which are inserted into the hose and
therefore have to have a smaller inner diameter than the hose. With a
cross-section area of about 30 mm² the system allows a sufficient flow
even in larger lengths of hose.

Now that you understand how the connection system works, you can be-
gin installing the CPU cooler.
As mentioned earlier, with any work you do on your computer, you
should always save your data

save your data beforehand. Disconnect your computer
from the power supply. To protect the
sensible hardware you should ground
yourself before installation to avoid elec-
trostatic destruction of the component
parts. For that purpose you can use a
non-isolated water pipe for example.
If you are upgrading an existing system
you have to remove the old cooler from
the processor first. For that purpose
please read the manual of your cooler or
your motherboard. After removing the
cooler you have to clean the die of the
processor of any residue of old heat-
conductive paste. Then take a razor
blade or a plastic spatula and apply a
