Installing the Heatsink(s)
1. The heat sink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) located on the bottom of it. Use caution
when you unpack the heat sink so you do not damage the TIM.
. Set the heat sink over the processor, lining up the four captive screws with the four posts
surrounding the processor.
. Loosely screw in the captive screws on the heat sink corners in a diagonal manner. Do not fully
tighten one screw before tightening another.
4. Gradually and equally tighten each captive screw until all screws are tight.
Removing a Processor
1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this book.
. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server. Turn off the server.
. Remove the AC power cord(s) from the server.
4. Remove the chassis cover.
5. Remove the memory and processor air duct.
6. Loosen the four captive screws on the corners of the heat sink.
7. Twist the heat sink slightly to break the seal between the heat sink and the processor.
8. Lift the heat sink from the processor. If it does not pull up easily, twist the heat sink again. Do
not force the heat sink from the processor. Doing so could damage the processor.
9. Lift the processor lever.
10. Remove the processor.
11. If installing a replacement processor, see "Installing the Processor." Otherwise, reinstall the
memory and processor air duct and the chassis cover.
