DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY
NO T E
Reassembly
Reassembly is the reverse of the disassembly process.
Make sure the cable tail from the fan is of the correct length. If not then any
excess cable needs to be bunched neatly together and cable tied to achieve
the proper cable length.
Removing the Motherboard from the Internal Shield Housing
1. Using a Phillips #1 screwdriver, remove the 9 screws and
washers that secure the motherboard to the Internal Shield
Casing.
2. Removing the motherboard out of the Rear Shield Housing should
be done with care and without any stress to the board. To remove
the motherboard, carefully lift the end of the motherboard where the
hard drive mounting area (Reference Designator: HD1) is located.
This will cause the board to come up at an angle. Once the board
has cleared the Rear Metal Casing’s wall, slide the board
completely out carefully. Care should be taken not to damage the
foil tape located on the inside wall of the metal casing near the
fan/keyboard area.
