7. Inspect the system processor socket area and remove any dust or debris (use a can of compressed
air).
8.
Lower the vacuum pen tool onto the system processor module. Fully press the top of the pen (A)
and hold the pen in the center of the system processor module as shown in Figure 50. Release the
top of the pen to fasten the pen onto the system processor module.
Note: To prevent the system processor module from falling, do not press the tip while holding the
pen and the system processor module. Minimize the time and distance that you have the pen
holding the system processor module in case the vacuum seal releases early.
9. Holding the vacuum pen, lift the pen and system processor module from the socket. Place them at
an angle on the top cover of the system processor module packaging as shown in Figure 51 on page
50. Setting the system processor module at an angle on the top cover of the system processor module
packaging will make it easier to pick up and place in the packaging after you replace the system
processor module.
