Disassembly Instructions 

This document contains step-by-step disassembly instructions for the iDesign 
(Epura) chassis. The instructions are clarified by images of the part that is being 
removed or disassembled. Furthermore, the screws that are removed are shown 
next to the image of the parts themselves. 

 

When disassembling the system unit, follow these general rules: 

 

 

Do not disassemble the system into parts that are smaller than those specified 
in the instructions. 

 

Label all removed connectors. Note where the connector goes and in what 
position it was installed. 

 

Turn off the power and disconnect all power and all options. 

 

 

Electrostatic discharge can damage computer components. 

Discharge static electricity by touching a metal object before 

removing the system unit cover. 

 
 
 

Reassembly Instructions 

Reassembly is the reverse of the disassembly process. Use care to ensure that all 
cables and screws are returned to their proper positions.
