Screws
The screws used in these products are not interchangeable. If an incorrect screw is
used during the reassembly process, it could cause damage to the unit. Compaq
strongly recommends that all screws removed during the disassembly process be kept
with the corresponding part that was removed, then returned to their proper locations.
Important
As each subassembly is removed from the computer, it should be
replaced away from the work area to prevent damage.
Cables and Connectors
Most cables used throughout the unit are ribbon cables . These must be handled gently
to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to seat or unseat the cable during its
insertion or removal from the connector. Handle cables by the connector whenever
possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing the cables, and ensure that
they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed.
CAUTION
When servicing these computers, ensure that cables are placed in
their proper location during the reassembly process. Improper
cable placement can cause severe damage to the unit.
