Screw Tightening Torque
When you fasten screws, be sure to follow the torque list below.
CAUTION: Overtightening can damage components and screws; undertightening
can result in electrical shorts or other damage if screws or components
come loose.
NOTE: Toshiba recommends that you use an electric screwdriver for quick and easy
operations.

M2.5 0.294 N·m (3.0 kgf·cm)
M3 0.549 N·m (5.6 kgf·cm)
NOTE: The computer contains several flathead screws. These screws have less
contact area with the screwdriver, so be careful to press firmly enough to
prevent the screwdriver from slipping out and damaging the screw head.
