Safety Instructions
When installing, operating, or performing maintenance on this equipment, the following
safety precautions should always be taken into account in order to reduce the risk of re,
electric shock, and personal injury.
Carefully read the safety instructions below before using this product.
• Observe all of the warning and instruction signs distinctively marked on the product.
• Before performing system installations, please consult the User’s Manual provided
with this product.
• Do not place this product on an uneven or weak surface (unstable cart, stand, table,
ect.) that might induce the product to fall and sustain serious damage.
• Install only the equipment or device identied in the User’s Manual. Deploying other
equipment or device with this motherboard could invoke improper connection of
circuitry that leads to re or personal injury.
• This product should only be operated with the type of power source indicated on the
marked label. If you are questionable about which type of power supply is used in your
area, consult your dealer or local Power Company.
• Disconnect the power supply module before removing power from the system.
• Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
• Do not use this product near a water source, including faucet and lavatory.
• Never spill liquids of any kind on this product.
• Never shove objects of any kind into this product’s open slots, as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts and could result in re or electric shock.
• Do not block or cover slots and openings in this unit, as they were made for ventilation
and prevent this unit from overheating. Do not place this product in a built-in
installation unless proper ventilation is available.
• Do not disassemble this product. This product should only be taken apart by trained
personnel. Opening or removing covers and circuit boards may expose you to electric
shock or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can also cause electric shock when the
unit is subsequently used.
• Risk of explosion is possible if battery is replaced with an incompatible type. Dispose
of used batteries accordingly.
• This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding type plug, a plug with a third
(grounding) pin. As a safety feature, this plug is intended to t only into a grounding
type power outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your
electrician to replace the outlet. Do not remove the grounding type plug or use a
3-Prong To 2-Prong Adapter to circumvent the safety feature; doing so may result in
electric shock and/or damage to this product.

2�1�2 Processor Heat Sink Module and Processor Socket Assembly
Each processor socket on the server board is pre-assembled with a loading mechanism
that is designed to secure the Processor Heat Sink Module (PHM) to the server board as
shown below.
WARNING
Previous generations of the Intel Xeon Processors and heatsinks are not compatible with the
Intel Server Board S2600BP Product Family. Processor installation requires that the proces-
sor be attached to the installation onto the server board.

2�1�3 Processor Heat Sink Module
The PHM refers to the sub-assembly where the heat sink and processor are clipped
together onto the server board prior to installation. The PHM consists of the
components shown below.

Chapter 2. Hardware SetupPavo User Manual
The PHM sits level with the processor socket assembly. The PHM is NOT installed
properly if it does not sit level with the processor socket assembly. Once the PHM is
seated over the processor socket assembly, the four heat sink torque screws must be
tightened in order as shown below.
Processor Heat Sink – Top View with Screw Tightening Order
NOTE
Failure to tighten the heatsink screws in the specied order may cause damage to the
processor socket assembly. Heat sink screws should be tighted to 12 in-lbs torque
according to the indicated order on the top of the heatsink label.
