b) If the unit has original 1 ½" hinged standoffs installed remove them.
c)
Install the (3) 1" standoffs onto the brass hinges that are pre-installed on the motherboard tray:
d) Place the upper motherboard assembly above the primary motherboard and align the standoffs with
the holes in the bottom of the enclosure. Install (3) 6-32 screws and lock washers from the bottom of
the unit to attach the standoffs.

as-is until the voices are tested & verified.

Install Connectors
