Installing Processor Handles
Depending on your configuration, the handles for the processor might not be attached to
the processor. In this case, you must attach a handle to each processor.
1. OrientthehandleasshowninFigure3-4onpage58.
2. Press the handle into the processor until the handle snaps into place.
Installing Processor Heatsinks
Depending on your configuration, the heatsink for each processor might not be attached.
In this case, you must attach one heatsink to each processor. If you are working with a
processor terminator module, you do not install a heatsink.
See Figure 3-4 for the location of processor components.
1. Remove the heatsink from its protective cover.
2. Pull the tab on the bottom of the heatsink to remove the blue plastic film and expose
the square of adhesive thermal grease that will help attach the heatsink to the
processor.
3. Orient the heatsink on the correct side of the processor. For correct orientation, see
Figure 3-4.
4. Because of the adhesive grease on the heatsink, be careful to orient the heatsink
properly before placing it against the processor.
