Install a CPU Cover Plate
Cover plates are plastic inserts that attach to the CPU load plate and protect the pins of an
unoccupied CPU socket. Cover plates are used in a two-CPU server (for the unoccupied slots)
and on replacement motherboards. When replacing a motherboard, remove the covers and
install them on the failed board.

Disengage the CPU load plate release levers by pushing them down and moving
them slightly toward the CPU socket and away from their retaining clips.
The levers are numbered with their required order of operation. The left-side lever (when
viewed from the front of the server) must be operated first.

Rotate the levers to the fully-open position.
Opening the second lever completes unlocking the load plate.

To open the load plate, lift the unhinged end to its fully-open position.
