SC216 Chassis Manual
Permanent and Optional Standoffs
Standoffs prevent short circuits by creating space between the motherboard and
the chassis surface. The SC216 chassis includes permanent standoffs in locations
used by most motherboards. These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head
screws included in the accessories package.
Some motherboards require additional screws for heatsinks, general components
or non-standard security. Optional standoffs are included for these motherboards.
To use an optional standoff, place the hexagonal nut with the rounded side up, in
the holes provided on the floor of the chassis.
