Reinstalling the Top Cover and Side Panel
If you removed the top cover and side panel as described in the two previous sections,
you probably noticed the panels are a snug fit. The snug fit helps the computer meet
FCC requirements.
Use the following instructions when reinstalling the side panel and top cover:
Side Panel
1.Install the side panel before you install the top cover. The side panel has twelve
small tabs and four screws that hold it in place. To remove the panel, you pushed
it toward the front of the computer, creating about a 1/2" gap between the front lip
of the side panel with the four screw holes and the threaded holes in the cabinet.
2.To reinstall the panel, hang the side panel in the forward position and press down
on the panel, making sure both the top and bottom tabs slide into position.
3.At this point the panel should be in position vertically, but with a 1/2" gap between
the front lip of the side panel with the four screw holes and the threaded holes in
the cabinet.
4.Using the palm of your hand, firmly strike the front edge of the side panel; this will
cause the side panel to slide back into its proper mounting position.
5.Reinstall the four screws.
Top Cover
1.When setting the top cover in position, make sure each tab is aligned with a
corresponding slot on the top of the cabinet. Press the top cover down into
position.
2.Make sure each of the tabs is fully inserted, with the top cover sitting flush on top
of the cabinet.
3.Like the side panel, there will be a gap of about a 1/2" between the front lip of the
top cover with the two screw holes and the threaded holes on the front of the
computer cabinet.
4.Each corner of the top cover has a notched tab designed to hold the cover in its
mounting position. Use the palm of your hand to push the top cover back into
position, which will close the gap between the front lip of the top cover and the
threaded holes in the cabinet.
5.Install the two screws that secure the top cover to the computer cabinet.
