STEP 23 Right blower fan parts preparation
For the following steps, please prepare:
M3x20r screw (2x) new blower fan holder
M5x10r screw (2x) old blower fan holder
M3x10b countersunk screw (2x)
M3x5 screw (2x)
M3nS nut (2x)
Note that your package contains either M3x20r or M5x10r screws based on the
blower fan holder version.
STEP 24 Blower fan gasket
Use the IPA cleaning pad from the package to clean the surface of the fan (the side
with the turbine), before you apply the gasket. Keep the pad for later use.
Remove the centre part of the gasket, you will need just the outer "rim".
Peel off the protective film (paper).
Place the gasket on the fan as in the picture, with the glue facing down. Press it all
around to ensure full contact between the gasket and the fan.
Make sure no part of the gasket is interfering with a spinning (central) part of the
fan!
