4.2.2 Screws
The screws used in the computer are not interchangeable. If an incorrect
screw is used during the reassembly process, it can damage the unit.
Compaq strongly recommends that all screws removed during disassembly be
kept with the part that was removed, then returned to their proper
locations.
IMPORTANT: As each subassembly is removed from the computer, it should be
placed away from the work area to prevent damage.
4.2.3 Cables and Connectors
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the
tension required to seat or unseat the cables during insertion or removal
from the connector. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In
all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing the cables, and ensure that
the cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged
by parts being removed or replaced.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CAUTION <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
When servicing this computer, ensure that cables are placed in their
proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement
can damage the computer.
