6.3 Using the Small Form Factor Computer in a
Minitower Configuration
The Small Form Factor computer can be used in either a minitower or desktop configuration. To
use it in the minitower configuration, you must purchase a tower stand from HP (part number
316593-001).
Ä CAUTION: If the computer is in the desktop configuration, ensure at least 4 inches (10.2 cm) of space
on all sides of the computer remains clear and free of obstructions.
To install the tower stand:
1. Rotate the computer into the tower position 1 and align the hole at the base of the computer
with the post and thumbscrew in the stand 2.
2. Tighten the screw to secure the computer to the stand 3. This adds stability and helps to
ensure proper airflow to the internal components.
