5. Carefully peel the data plate off the base. Set it aside. The data plate has your system’s serial number on it, so
do not lose it or tear it.
6. Place the wooden end of a swab, a stiff wire, or other similar item with a .092-inch (.23 cm) diameter in each of
the 5 holes on the power board side of the base. Press each one until the clips release and you can pull the
base away from the center panel.
7. Position the new base over the metal plate on the bottom of the power supply so that the screw holes align.
Replace the 6 screws and press the data plate onto the new base.
8. Replace the endcaps. Make sure that the screw hole in the ground clip on the front endcap aligns with the
screw holes in the endcap and the power supply.
9. Being careful not to pinch any of the wires, replace the Nomex barrier and slide the cover back onto the power
supply. Make sure that the bottom edges are in the tracks. Position the handle over the holes in the top of the
cover, then use the 2 screws to secure the cover.
10. Reconnect the electrical power and the gas supply.
