board.
7. Lay aside the old heat sink. Touch the static-protective package that contains the new heat sink to any
unpainted surface on the outside of the server. Then, remove the new heat sink from the package and
remove the protective cover from the heat sink.
Notes:
• When handling the heat sink, do not touch the thermal grease on the bottom of it.
• Before installing the new heat sink, use the cleaning pad that comes with the new heat sink to wipe
the thermal grease from the top of the microprocessor. Dispose of the cleaning pad after all of the
thermal grease is removed from the microprocessor.
8. Place the new heat sink on the system board so that the four screws on the new heat sink are aligned
with the corresponding mounting studs on the system board. Note the orientation of the new heat sink.
Ensure that the arrow on the new heat sink points to the rear of the server. See “Server components”
