lever until the lever latches into place.

8. Apply a layer of CPU grease to the top of the CPU to ensure proper contact 

and heat dissipation.

9. Place the fansink assembly squarely on top of the CPU.

10. Secure the assembly by clipping the bracket to the plastic flanges on the CPU 

socket as shown in Figure 7.
