Note: Heatsink styles may vary.
Remove the protective film on the TIM if present.

CAUTION: The heatsink has thermal interface
material (TIM) on the underside of it. Use caution so
that you do not damage the thermal interface material.
Use gloves to avoid sharp edges.

Align heatsink fins to the front and back of
the chassis for correct airflow.
Airflow goes from front-to-back of chassis.
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. (Do not fully tighten.)
Proceed to screw 2 and engage screw
threads by giving it two rotations and
stop. 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.
