Connect the fan power lead to the proper connector to the motherboard.   

Ensure the cam lever is locked into the retention frame.   

 

 

Carefully turn the cam lever to lock into place. 

Check the installation completely to make sure heatsink is installed correctly before starting the system. When the system 

is first powered-on, verify that the processor heatsink/fan is turning at a rapid rate.   

If the fan is spinning at a slow rate or not spinning at all, power-down the system immediately to avoid any thermal damage.
