Installing a security U-bolt
To help prevent hardware theft, you can use the cover lock loop with a
padlock and add a security U-bolt and cable to your computer.
Before you begin:
Ÿ
Obtain the following:
– A 19-mm (3/4 in.) U-bolt and threaded nuts that fit the U-bolt
– A security cable
– A lock, such as a combination lock or padlock
– A wrench to fit the nuts
– A small, flat-blade screwdriver
Ÿ
Read “Safety information” on page vii and “Handling static-sensitive
devices” on page 57.
Ÿ
Turn off the computer and all other connected devices.
Ÿ
Disconnect all power cords and external cables attached to the
computer, and then remove the computer cover (see “Removing the
cover” on page 59).
To install a U-bolt:
1. Use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to remove the two metal knockouts
from the back of the computer.
2. Insert the U-bolt through the holes; then attach and tighten the nuts.
3. Replace the computer cover. For more information, see “Replacing the
cover and connecting the cables” on page 82.
4. Thread the cable through the U-bolt and around an object that is not a
part of or permanently secured to the building structure or foundation
and from which it cannot be removed; then fasten the cable ends
together with a lock.
