4.Using both hands, lift up both fans at the same time and remove the assembly (3).
CAUTION: Take extreme care when removing the heat sink and fan assembly. The heatpipes between the fans are very fragile and can be easily damaged and bent during removal.
NOTE: The thermal material must be thoroughly cleaned from the surfaces of the heat sink and the system board components each time the heat sink is removed. Replacement thermal material is included with the heat sink, processor, and system board spare part kits.
The following illustration shows the replacement thermal material locations. Thermal paste is used on the heat sink (1) and the processor (2).
