Installing the Fan/ Heatsink
To install the Fan/Heatsink assembly:
5. When installing the Fan/Heatsink and clip assembly it
is important to make sure the Fan/Heatsink
does not
rotate or twist on the processor. Securing the Fan/
Heatsink while closing the clip lever will ensure the
thermal interface material (TIM) is not damaged and
the processor will operate correctly. The TIM is
attached to the heatsink.
6. Make sure to close the clip levers one at a time. Close
the clip lever (1), while holding the top-side of the
Fan/Heatsink with your other hand (A). Close the clip
lever (2) while holding the top-side of the Fan/
Heatsink with your other hand (B).
