Installation Instructions:
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 1 : Backplate Installation
Choose the platform (775/1150/1155/1156/1366) you are in use. Make four M3L10 Screw Pillars go
through the Metal Back Plate and the Mylar lm from bottom towards top.And then place the Metal Back
Plate on the table. Put the four Washers (for Intel) around the Screw Pillars.
- Please use the included gloves during installation to avoid nger prints on heatsink body.
Step 2 : 775 Back Plate Cap
Note: When installing on a 775 platform, please rst insert the Back Plate Cap into the opening on
the Back plate, make sure you have the Cap facing downwards. (Only for LGA775 platform, all other
platforms go directly to Step 3).
Step 3 : Place the motherboard on top of the
Back Plate. See the four Screw Pillars go
through the four holes around the processor
socket.Cap the four Screw Pillars with the four
Screw Nuts.Make sure the side with a washer is

fan duct so that it can easily t between the Macho
heatsink and the system exhaust fan at the rear of
your case. Connect the end with the Thermalright
logo of the fan duct to the rear case exhaust fan.
Step 5 : Applying Thermal Paste
Apply the Thermal Paste to the base of the
Heatsink and the surface of the CPU evenly. (A
flat edge, like a business card or an old credit
card would be benecial in spreading the thermal
paste.)
Step 9 : by expanding the fan duct to connect the
back end to the Macho heatsink.
Step 10 : Installation completed.
Step 6: Mounting Plate Installation
Place the Heatsink Body on top of the CPU. Make
Mounting Plate go through the Heatsink Body.
And then use the two M3L6 screws to secure the
Mounting Plate, one side at a time in several turns
to ensure balanced mounting.
Step 7: Easy Access
Pass the supplied Screw
Driver through the central
hole of the Heatsink Body,
for easier access to the
M3L6 Screw underneath
the cooler.
