Next, use a can of compressed air from your local computer store to 
blow out any dust that may have accumulated in the chassis fans. Be 
sure to keep the can of compressed air about six inches from the parts 
being sprayed with air. 

Next, you can use anti static wipes to wipe down any open areas inside 
and outside of the chassis to remove any remaining dust or dirt. If you 
have dust or dirt remaining in any “hard to reach area”, such as corners 
of a fan blade, you can use the cotton swabs, dipped in the isopropyl 
(alcohol), to gently rub the area clean. 

Lastly, if the chassis was extremely dirty, you can remove any installed

 Party cards and wipe the PCI-X slots with a soft bristle brush (like a 

toothbrush), dipped in the isopropyl (alcohol), to gently clean each slot. 
When finished, blow the slots with compressed air from about six inches 
away until dry.  

 

If your chassis is extremely dirty and you would like professional 
help with getting it clean, you can contact Magma Support for 
instructions and costs on shipping the chassis back for cleaning. 

Finally, clean the air filter following the instructions later in this chapter. 
When finished, replace the cover and turn on power to the system. 

In spite of regular performance of routine maintenance tasks, some 
computer systems can experience hardware failures. Fortunately, your 
investment in a PE6RR provides you with the ability to easily replace 
the power supply in the event of power supply failure.
