Place Heatsink Onto Heatsink Adapter
Hold the heatsink adapter so the large piece of thermal pad material is face up
and the holes are on the left (Figure 11). Hold the heatsink with the short fins
closest to you, and then guide the heatsink’s two left posts through the holes in
the left edge of the heatsink adapter.
Reattach Heatsink
1. Make sure the heatsink clips are positioned properly on the heatsink
(Figure 12). Examine the clips and note the short and long sections, and the
dimple. Place each clip on the heatsink so its short section and dimple rests
in the tall fin area.
2. Grasp the heatsink and heatsink adapter together. With the tall fins at the
back, guide the heatsink’s posts into the holes on the Encore card; make sure
the clips do not get caught between (Figure 13). Verify that the heatsink rests
flat on top of the heatsink adapter.
3. Lift up a clip and hook it over the back of the Encore card, then pull it
toward you (Figure 14). Repeat this process with the other clip.
4. Grasp a clip with needle-nose pliers, then pull it toward you and over the
front of the heatsink and the Encore card (Figure 15). Repeat this process
with the other clip.
