c. Set the screws in the center part of each of the two latches, and then tighten
the screws while pressing them against the PCI card.
Note – When affixing the PCI card after aligning its position with the
card-positioning tab, do so while pulling the lever about 2 cm from the frame.
Caution – If the card is short, move the screw at the bottom of the cassette as
required. In such cases, place the latches as close as possible to the far end of the
card. (See FIGURE 13-9)
9. Mount the PCI cassette.
a. Pull the lever of the PCI cassette until the PCI cassette is pulled out
completely.
b. Align the PCI cassette with the groove of the PCI slot, and insert the PCI
cassette.
c. Press the upper part of the cassette until the cassette is inserted in the same
position as the other cassettes.

e. Using a Phillips screwdriver, tighten the green screw.
Caution – Align the PCI card with the slot guides, insert it carefully, and secure it
firmly.
Caution – Do not forcibly push the PCI card when inserting it, even if it is not
moving smoothly. If the PCI card is forcibly inserted despite the presence of any
obstruction in a slot or any problem with a connector pin, serious damage may
result.
■ If the lever of a PCI cassette cannot be inserted:
a. When the lever of the PCI cassette is pushed in but it stops halfway without
reaching the far end, do not forcibly push it in any further. Instead, pull it
out once and then insert it again. (See
