TM700 User Guide - Upgrading Your System

Removing or Installing the Right Side Door

The right side door (tower configuration), also known as top cover (desktop configura- tion) provides access to the disk drive bays, to the motherboard and to the 5.25 and 3.5- inch bays. The left side cover (tower configuration) only provides access to the power supply. Only a qualified technician should remove the left side cover of this chassis.

Removing the Right Side Door:

1.Make sure the power switches for the computer, video monitor and any periph- eral devices are turned OFF and unplug the power cord (see the 'Safety Precau- tions' chapter).

2.Disconnect the monitor and peripheral devices (printers, for instance) from the system.

3.Remove the two thumb screws located on the back of your system.

4.Carefully slide the cover about two centimetres towards the back of the unit; a handle is provided to aid with this process. Please note that you may find this procedure easier to follow if you lay the unit on the left side..

5.Lift the cover away from the computer

Replacing the Right Side Door:

Avoid damaging your system - before replacing the cover, make sure no cables or other devices protrude from the chassis.

Note: If you have previously removed the front panel, be sure to fasten it securely to the chassis before restoring the cover. The front panel must be securely connected to the chassis before you replace the cover.
