Starting installation
Open the Case and Install the Mainboard
Installation Notes:
1. The case of aluminum has a refined appearance. Since aluminum is a very soft material, an extra treatment of
hardness has been applied to the case. However, such treatment still can not prevent the case from scratches.
Therefore, we suggest you to place a piece of clean paper board or soft pad and then place the PC on top of the
board or pad. Even the dismantled cover also needs to be placed on pads to avoid scratches by improper placement.
2. The mainboard contains very complicated pieces of electronic part. Though a proper protection has been applied, it
may still be harmed or damaged by unexpected static electricity. Therefore, we suggest you to put on an anti-static
wristlet (please refer to the manual of the wristlet for further instruction). If you do not have any anti-static wristlet, you
should wear a nonconductive glove. Though the glove can causes inconvenience in computer assembly, it can
provide effective protection to the mainboard. If you do not even have a nonconductive glove, we suggest you to try to
use bare hands to touch a large-scaled metal product before starting the installation. This can effectively remove the
static on your hands, achieving a basic protection for the mainboard.
Opening the case:
A. Unscrew three hand-screw on the
back.
B. Pull the cover backward and then
upward.
C. Remove the cover and then the
mainboard is accessible.
