to clear and clean the heat sink as needed.
2 Connect the fan assembly’s circular connectors to the SSPA.
3 Position the fan assembly onto the SSPA. Make sure that you align the assembly properly, so
that you can bolt down the fasteners without any cable or fan interference.
4 Tighten the four captive fasteners where shown previously in Figure C-2 .
Be sure to use an appropriate screwdriver, such as the one provided
