2. Attach the low-profile bracket to the adapter board. The low-profile bracket is installed on the back
side of the adapter, with the mounting screws inserted from the front, as shown the Figure 3.
Insert the screws through the holes on the front of the adapter, then fasten the screws to the bracket
with a Phillips screw driver.
Caution: The mount points on the low-profile bracket have a smooth or flat side
and a raised side that looks like a spacer (see Figure 3). Be sure to install the bracket
with the flat side against the adapter board and the raised side facing away from
the adapter board.
Caution: The torque on the mounting screws should be a maximum of 3.0-4.0
lbf-in to avoid deformation. Be sure that the adapter is not bent after attaching
the low-profile bracket to the adapter board.
