Step 4:

Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU

socket.

Step 5:

Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the

CPU socket.

Step 6:

Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU.

Carefully match the two orientation notches on the CPU with the socket

alignment keys.

Step 7:

Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are

properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly. See

Step 8:

Close the CPU socket. Close the load plate and pull the load lever back a little

to have the load plate be able to secure to the knob. Engage the load lever by

pushing it back to its original position (Figure 4-4). There will be some

resistance, but will not require extreme pressure.
