Step 2 Mount the Cooler
Before mounting the board into the chassis, it is necessary to add hardware to it first (CPU, Cooler, RAM, plus any
optional additional hardware). First start with the back plate, which is essential for the cooler.
Do not take the stripe off the back plate for sticking it onto the backside of the board. The sticker is necessary for
isolation and safety.
Place the back plate underneath the board.
The side with the indentation has to be positioned
directly under the screw. The end of the back
plate’s notches should be visible after the process.

Next, mount the cooler on top of the CPU (1) and tighten the screws in the designated holes (2). Recommended
mounting screw torque: max. 0.8Nm. Be aware that the wire needs to be able to reach the red slot.
Option 1: Active Cooler
Put the cooler on top of the CPU and screw it onto the back plate through the board. Connect the cooler with the
board by the use of the cable connector (see arrow in Step 2).
Option 2: Passive Cooler
Then put the cooler on top of the CPU and screw it onto the back plate through the board. The thermal paste is
already applied.

Step 3 Insert Modules
In the following picture, you can see the board with the three appropriated M.2 WLAN Modules or storage:
Next put the memory in tilted upwards and then push it down with a little pressure.
Attention: Do not touch the pin! Touch the memory at the outside edge. Do not stick a barcode on the memory!
The following procedure is necessary to make correct contact guarantee:
Insert memory at an angle and
pay attention to the notch!
Remove the memory again
completely from the DIMM slot!
Insert memory again
Press down on the memory until
it clicks into place
Do not press in the middle of the
memory, but press down on the
outer edges (yellow arrows on
the following picture)

Option 1: M.2. WLAN 2230 and SSD / Storage
Insert WLAN card transversally into the slot (while paying attention to the coding / notch).
Both modules, as shown in the picture, always tackle on the outer edges.
Same procedure for the SSD / storage module (Option 2).
Pay attention
to the notch
In the next step you have to push it down a
little bit and tighten the screws in the
designated hole.
Now do the same step on the other side.

If all screws are tighten up, the finished result should look like this:
Option 2: SSD / Storage Module
Now you have to put in the M.2. SSD /
Storage 2280 and M.2 2242.
Pay attention to the notch!
