7. Squeeze the activation arm of the compression assembly as shown in Figure 18, which
will cause the springs on the compression assembly to compress. While keeping the
activation arm compressed, insert the fan/heatsink through the top of the compression
assembly such that it rests gently on the Processor. Slide the fan/heatsink away from
handle as shown in Figure 19. This will ensure the compression assembly will properly
engage the four contact points on the fan/assembly.
8. Now, slowly release the activation arm being certain that the compression assembly
comes into contact with the four fan/heatsink contact points. Once the activation arm
has been fully released, and the compression assembly should be securely holding the
fan/assembly to the Processor. The fan/assembly is now mounted to the board.
