Peel-off the protective film from the copper base.

Install the provided barb fittings

– Fasten the fittings by

hand until they mate with the port surface. Then lock them
in place with an extra ¼ of a turn

using a 5/8” tool (flat

wrench or socket wrench).

Select the base plate corresponding to your motherboard
socket, and peel-off the protective paper from all 4
adhesive pads.

Caution!

The adhesive is very strong and removing the

back-plate once it is in place may permanently damage the
adhesive pads, and require replacement.

Tip:

if you intend to remove the back-plate in the

foreseable future, it is OK to only peel-off half of the
protective paper, and fold it over. This will make removing
and re-using the back-plate easier.


Install the back-plate to the back of the motherboard by
aligning it to the 4 holes surrounding the CPU socket, and
applying it firmly; make sure that all four of the back-plate
standoffs go freely into each of their respective
motherboard hole.

A word of caution before you proceed further


Like all other pumps in our product line (and the computer industry in general), the MCP35X pump which is built into your
Apogee™ Drive II is not a self-priming pump. It means that the pump requires being filled-up and fed with a constant, air-
free, supply of coolant in order to prime i.e. to circulate the fluid, and to stay primed. Upon initial installation it is therefore
critical to make sure that the pump is completely full of fluid or it will spin without circulating the coolant. In order to
facilitate this priming process, we recommend the following:
