Figure 4-17. Removing the Fan Rivets
4. Remove the plastic mounting rivets that hold the fans in place. See Figure 4-17. To
remove the rivets, press in on the backside of the rivet to release the fastener. If the
rivet backside is inaccessible, use a sharp edged device to remove the rivet from the face
of the rear panel. Also, while removing the rivets, you will need to reach inside the
system unit and hold on to the fan you are removing. If you are removing the top fan,
hold on to the fan and pull outward as shown by the arrow in Figure 4-18. If you are
removing the lower fan, you will need to hold both edges of the fan and slide it to the
right. See arrow one in Figure 4-18. Next pull outward on the fan. See arrow two in
Figure 4-18.
