Notes: 

•  T30 screw drivers are used to service the new Intel Xeon CPUs.

•  Hexagonal sockets are used to remove antenna connectors.

•  Silicone grease is applied to the CPU and heatsink surfaces to eliminate air gaps.

General guidelines

When removing or replacing an FRU, ensure that you observe the following general guidelines:

1.  Do not try to service any computer unless you have been trained and certified. An untrained person runs 

the risk of damaging parts.

2.  Begin by removing any FRUs that have to be removed before replacing the failing FRU. Any such FRUs 

are listed at the beginning of each FRU replacement procedure. Remove them in the order in which they 
are listed.
