Rope Clip - Lenovo ThinkCentre 8111 User Manual

Rope Clip

Using a 3/16-inch or 5-mm rope clip (sometimes referred to as a U-bolt), a steel
security cable, and a padlock can secure your computer to a desk, table, or other
non-permanent fixture. Rope clip knockouts at the rear of the chassis are provided.
To install a rope clip:
1. Open the computer cover. See "Opening the cover" on page 11.
2. Use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to remove the two metal knockouts.
3. Insert the rope clip through the rear panel; then attach and tighten the nuts
with an appropriately sized or adjustable wrench.
4. Close the computer cover. See "Closing the cover and connecting the cables" on
page 28.
5. Thread the cable through the rope clip and secure your computer to a desk,
table or other non-permanent fixture by fastening the cable ends together with
a lock.
