Replacing the Chassis Blower
The blower is located at the bottom of the chassis interior. (See .) Two air ducts on the rear of the
blower, shown shaded in the illustration, fit snugly into the two cutouts in the backplane. The blower
is secured to the backplane with three large captive screws, which are shown in Figure 6. The captive
screws on most blowers are 3-mm center-hex Allen-head screws, but the earliest chassis shipped
used Phillips-head screws. A 3-mm T-handle driver with a long (9-inch) handle is shipped with the
spare blower.
Although the far left captive screw on the blower is slightly obscured from view by the left lip of the
chassis and the left blower air duct, an access hole in the lip of the chassis provides access to this
screw. By inserting the T-handle driver (or screwdriver) straight into the access hole, you should be
able to find the screw without any trouble. However, if you do have trouble finding the screw, and if
the lighting around the chassis is poor, you may need a flashlight to locate the screw and position the
driver correctly.
