Processor Heatsink Installation

If present, remove the protective film covering the Thermal Interface Material (TIM) on the bottom side of the
heatsink (see letter "A").
Align heatsink fins to the front and back of the chassis for correct airflow. Airflow goes from front-to-back of chassis
(see letter "B").
Each heatsink has four captive fasteners and should be tightened in a diagonal manner using the following
procedure:
Using a #2 Phillips* screwdriver, start with screw 1 and engage screw threads by giving it two rotations and stop
(see letter "C"). (Do not fully tighten.)
Proceed to screw 2 and engage screw threads by giving it two rotations and stop (see letter "D"). Similarly, engage
screws 3 and 4.
Repeat steps C and D by giving each screw two rotations each time until each screw is lightly tightened up to a
maximum of 8 inch-lbs torque (see letter "E").
