Installing the Top Cover
1.Before replacing the top cover, make sure no tools or loose parts have been left inside the system chassis.
2.Make sure all option boards are firmly seated in their respective slots and that all interior cables are properly connected.
3.Lower the cover straight down with the front edge about 1/2 inch back from the edge of the plastic bezel (front cover). The sides of the cover should be outside the chassis metal.
4.Carefully slide the front edge of the cover forward until it stops at the edge of the front bezels.
5.Reinstall two retaining screws at the back.
6.Reinstall the two side panels.
Removing the Board Support Panel
A metal panel supports the processor/memory board. To remove the processor/memory board, you must remove this board support panel.
Notice: To prevent damage to the system board from a partially inserted processor/memory board and to provide proper cooling and airflow, always install the metal support panel before installing the chassis side and top covers and turning on the system. Operating the system without this support panel in place can damage system parts.
Caution: If the system has been running, any installed processor and heat sink on the processor board(s) will be hot. To avoid the possibility of a burn, be careful when removing or installing system board components that are located near processors.
