5. Pull the tray open to the first slide position.

6. If any interface cables are connected between expansion card(s) and the small

computer system interface (SCSI) backplane board, disconnect the interface

cables from the SCSI backplane board.

7. Install the expansion-card cooling fan assembly (see Figure 1-2):

a. Insert the tabs at the bottom of the fan assembly into expansion-card bracket

at slots PCI2 and PCI6.

To identify slots PCI2 and PCI6, see “Expansion Cards” in your system’s

Installation and Troubleshooting Guide.

b. Press the top of the fan assembly and slide it under the top of the expansion-

card bracket.

c. Secure the fan assembly bracket to the expansion-card bracket, and tighten

the fan assembly bracket thumbscrew.

NOTE: If you cannot install the fan assembly on the expansion-card bracket, replace

the expansion-card guides with those included in the fan assembly upgrade kit.

8. Locate an available connector on the DC power harness, and connect it to one of

the two fan assembly DC power connectors.
