Figure 3-7 Mounting Screw Clearance for the Maxtor Quickview 300 Hard Disk Drives
CAUTION:
The PCB is very close to the mounting holes. Do not ex-
ceed the specified length for the mounting screws. The
specified screw length allows full use of the mounting hole
threads, while avoiding damaging or placing unwanted stress
on the PCB. Figure 3-7 specifies the minimum clearance be-
tween the PCB and the screws in the mounting holes. To
avoid stripping the mounting hole threads, the maximum
torque applied to the screws must not exceed 8 inch-pounds.
A maximum screw length of 0.25 inches may be used
.
