Removal and replacement procedures

This chapter provides detailed instructions on how to remove and replace component spare parts.

Required tools

You need the following items for some procedures:
• T-10 Torx screwdriver
• T-15 Torx screwdriver
• 5.0 mm hex nut screwdriver
• Phillips No. 1 screwdriver
• Small flat-bladed, nonconductive tool

Safety considerations

Before performing service procedures, review all the safety information.

Electrostatic discharge

Be aware of the precautions you must follow when setting up the system or handling components. A discharge of static
electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of
damage may reduce the life expectancy of the system or component.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly. Use one or more of the
following methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
◦ Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis. Wrist straps are
flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ±10 percent resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper
ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.
◦ Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when standing
on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
◦ Use conductive field service tools.
◦
Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an authorized reseller install the part.
For more information on static electricity or assistance with product installation, contact an authorized reseller.
